Uncle Sidney To Marcellus Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD AEAE ABAB

Marcellus won't you tell usA
Truly tell us if you canB
What will you be MarcellusA
When you get to be a manB
-
You turn with never answerC
But to the band that playsD
O rapt and eerie dancerC
What of your future daysD
-
Far in the years before usA
We dreamers see your fameE
While song and praise in chorusA
Make music of your nameE
-
And though our dreams foretell usA
As only visions canB
You must prove it O MarcellusA
When you get to be a manB
