On One Of The Windows At Delville Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEE| A bard grown desirous of saving his pelf | A |
| Built a house he was sure would hold none but himself | A |
| This enraged god Apollo who Mercury sent | B |
| And bid him go ask what his votary meant | B |
| Some foe to my empire has been his adviser | C |
| 'Tis of dreadful portent when a poet turns miser | C |
| Tell him Hermes from me tell that subject of mine | D |
| I have sworn by the Styx to defeat his design | D |
| For wherever he lives the Muses shall reign | E |
| And the Muses he knows have a numerous train | E |
