A Rough Sketch Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCC DEDEFF| I caught for a second across the crowd | A |
| Just for a second and barely that | B |
| A face pox pitted and evil browed | A |
| Hid in the shade of a slouch rim'd hat | B |
| With small gray eyes of a look as keen | C |
| As the long sharp nose that grew between | C |
| - | |
| And I said 'Tis a sketch of Nature's own | D |
| Drawn i' the dark o' the moon I swear | E |
| On a tatter of Fate that the winds have blown | D |
| Hither and thither and everywhere | E |
| With its keen little sinister eyes of gray | F |
| And nose like the beak of a bird of prey | F |
