Undeceived Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEFGHIJK| SECURE within his citadel my heart | A |
| A roystering King has quaft his goblets brimm'd | B |
| At pleasure's sparkling fount has quaft and slept | C |
| Has hugg'd the phantom of delight and slept | C |
| Not dreaming from his sleep he'd e'er awake | D |
| To find his towers a ruin and his bliss | E |
| Sepulchred in the dust but now alas | F |
| The truth discover'd he assumes his staff | G |
| And walks the world and when he'd halt lest | H |
| Should build another citadel and play | I |
| The merry fool he played a voice exclaims | J |
| 'Reflect the Earthquake ' and he halteth not | K |
