Keats Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFDGF

An English lad who reading in a bookA
A ponderous leathern thing set on his kneeB
Saw the broad violet of the Egean SeaB
Lap at his feet as it were village brookA
Wide was the east the gusts of morning shookA
Immortal laughter beat along that shoreC
Pan crouching in the reeds piped as of yoreC
The gods came down and thundered from that bookA
He lifted his sad eyes his London streetD
Swarmed in the sun and strove to make him heedE
Boys spun their tops shouting and fair of cheekF
But still that violet lapping at his feetD
An English lad had he sat down to readG
But he rose up and knew himself a GreekF
