Born Brothers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDDECE| Equality is absolute or no | A |
| Nothing between can stand We are the sons | B |
| Of the same sire or madness breaks and runs | B |
| Through the rude world Ridiculous our woe | A |
| If single pity does not love it So | A |
| Our separate fathers love us No man shuns | B |
| His poorest child's embrace We are the sons | B |
| Of such or ground and sky are soon to go | A |
| - | |
| Nor do born brothers judge as good or ill | C |
| Their being Each consents and is the same | D |
| Or suddenly sweet winds turn into flame | D |
| And floods are on us fire earth water air | E |
| All hideously parted as his will | C |
| Withdraws no longer fatherly and there | E |
