The World's Advance Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCEFFJudge mildly the tasked world and disincline | A |
To brand it for it bears a heavy pack | B |
You have perchance observed the inebriate's track | B |
At night when he has quitted the inn sign | A |
He plays diversions on the homeward line | A |
Still that way bent albeit his legs are slack | B |
A hedge may take him but he turns not back | B |
Nor turns this burdened world of curving spine | A |
'Spiral ' the memorable Lady terms | C |
Our mind's ascent our world's advance presents | D |
That figure on a flat the way of worms | C |
Cherish the promise of its good intents | E |
And warn it not one instinct to efface | F |
Ere Reason ripens for the vacant place | F |
