Continuation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEAAFF| So sung the poet in a humble strain | A |
| With empty pockets and a head in pain | A |
| Where the soft clime inclin'd the soul to rest | B |
| And past'ral images inspir'd the breast | B |
| Apollo listen'd from his heav'nly bower | C |
| And in his health restor'd express'd his power | C |
| Pygmalion thus before the Paphian shrine | D |
| With trembling vows address'd the pow'r divine | D |
| Durst hardly make his hopeless wishes known | E |
| And scarce a greater miracle was shown | E |
| Returning vigour glow'd in every vein | A |
| And gay ideas flutter'd in the brain | A |
| Back he returns to breathe his native air | F |
| And all his first resolves are melted there | F |
