Taste Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHI| What then is taste but those internal powers | A |
| Active and strong and feeling alive | B |
| To each fine impulse a discerning sense | C |
| Of decent and sublime with quick disgust | D |
| From things deformed or disarranged and gross | E |
| In species This nor gems nor stores of gold | F |
| Nor purple state nor culture can bestow | G |
| But God alone when first His active hand | H |
| Imprints the secret bias of the soul | I |
