On Seeing A Portrait Of Sir Robert Walpole Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDEEFFGGHIJJKKSuch were the lively eyes and rosy hue | A |
Of Robin's face when Robin first I knew | A |
The gay companion and the fav'rite guest | B |
Lov'd without awe and without views caress'd | B |
His cheerful smile and open honest look | C |
Added new graces to the truth he spoke | D |
Then ev'ry man found something to commend | E |
The pleasant neighbour and the worthy friend | E |
The gen'rous master of a private house | F |
The tender father and indulgent spouse | F |
The hardest censors at the worst believ'd | G |
His temper was too easily deceiv'd | G |
A consequential ill good nature draws | H |
A bad effect but from a noble cause | I |
Whence then these clamours of a judging crowd | J |
Suspicious griping insolent and proud | J |
Rapacious cruel violent unjust | K |
False to his friend and traitor to his trust | K |
