Lone Founts Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABACDCDD

Though fast youth's glorious fable fliesA
View not the world with worldling's eyesA
Nor turn with weather of the timeB
Foreclose the coming of surpriseA
Stand where Posterity shall standC
Stand where the Ancients stood beforeD
And dipping in lone founts thy handC
Drink of the never varying loreD
Wise once and wise thence evermoreD

Herman Melville
