Sonnets. Xi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD

A Book was writ of late call'd TetrachordonA
And wov'n close both matter form and stileB
The Subject new it walk'd the Town a whileB
Numbring good intellects now seldom por'd onA
Cries the stall reader bless us what a word onA
A title page is this and some in fileB
Stand spelling fals while one might walk to MileB
End Green Why is it harder Sirs then GordonA
Colkitto or Macdonnel or GalaspC
Those rugged names to our like mouths grow sleekD
That would have made Quintilian stare and gaspC
Thy age like ours O Soul of Sir John CheekD
Hated not Learning wors then Toad or AspC
When thou taught'st Cambridge and King Edward GreekD

John Milton
