The Contest Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACACCCCADAEFE| Our palm designed to grow | A |
| In deserts sent roots seeking far and wide | B |
| Channels where waters flow | A |
| And in the city found | C |
| Intricate pipings where the waters flow | A |
| Imprisoned underground | C |
| Since iron strength was nought | C |
| Against the clever groping fingers meant | C |
| To find the thing they sought | C |
| Our palm's condemned to go | A |
| While on through streets and houses at men's will | D |
| Rivers of crystal flow | A |
| Be sad awhile And then | E |
| Exult in visible beauty overthrown | F |
| By the fair will of men | E |
