Mankind Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH| Men are but children of a larger growth | A |
| Our appetites are apt to change as theirs | B |
| And full as craving too and full as vain | C |
| And yet the soul shut up in her dark room | D |
| Viewing so clear abroad at home sees nothing | E |
| But like a mole in earth busy and blind | F |
| Works all her folly up and casts it outward | G |
| To the world's open view | H |
