Waverley Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: A BCCBBCCD EFEGEF

A
-
-
When on a novel's newly printed pageB
We find a maudlin eulogy of sinC
And read of ways that harlots wander inC
And of sick souls that writhe in helpless rageB
Or when Romance bespectacled and sageB
Taps on her desk and bids the class beginC
To con the problems that have always beenC
Perplexed mankind's unhappy heritageD
-
Then in what robes of honor habitedE
The laureled wizard of the North appearsF
Who raised Prince Charlie's cohorts from the deadE
Made Rose's mirth and Flora's noble tearsG
And formed that shining legion at whose headE
Rides Waverley triumphant o'er the yearsF
