To Lady Carteret Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGG| FROM India's burning clime I'm brought | A |
| With cooling gales like zephyrs fraught | A |
| Not Iris when she paints the sky | B |
| Can show more different hues than I | B |
| Nor can she change her form so fast | C |
| I'm now a sail and now a mast | C |
| I here am red and there am green | D |
| A beggar there and here a queen | D |
| I sometimes live in house of hair | E |
| And oft in hand of lady fair | E |
| I please the young I grace the old | F |
| And am at once both hot and cold | F |
| Say what I am then if you can | G |
| And find the rhyme and you're the man | G |
