Honourable Employment Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGDDHI| O my lord lie not idle | A |
| The chiefest action for a man of great spirit | B |
| Is never to be out of action We should think | C |
| The soul was never put into the body | D |
| Which has so many rare and curious pieces | E |
| Of mathematical motion to stand still | F |
| Virtue is ever sowing of her seeds | G |
| In the trenches for the soldier in the wakeful study | D |
| For the scholar in the furrows of the sea | D |
| For men of our profession of all which | H |
| Arise and spring up honour | I |
