Conflict Of Wit And Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABC DDDC EFGG HHB

Sir Wit who is so much esteem'dA
And who is worthy of all honourB
Saw Beauty his superior deem'dA
By folks who loved to gaze upon herB
At this he was most sorely vex'dC
-
Then came Sir Breath long known as fitD
To represent the cause of witD
Beginning rudely I admitD
To treat the lady with a textC
-
To this she hearken'd not at allE
But hasten'd to his principalF
'None are so wise they say as youG
Is not the world enough for twoG
-
If you are obstinate good byeH
If wise to love me you will tryH
For be assured the world can ne'erB
Give birth to a more handsome pair '-

Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
