To Mrs. Armine Cartwright, At Bath. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEFGG| Lovely Armina o'er her Books reclin'd | A |
| Impairs her Body to improve her Mind | A |
| Of Wisdom fond as others are of Wealth | B |
| In that Pursuit will sacrifice her Health | B |
| Then Miser like when she has gain'd the Prize | C |
| Hides both Herself and Treasure from our Eyes | C |
| In this alone Armina you're to blame | D |
| Regardless of your Health or Friendship's Claim | D |
| A giddy thoughtless World your Aid require | E |
| And Ignorance prevails when You retire | F |
| Why Form'd to please and why Improv'd with Care | G |
| Is there no End in being Wise and Fair | G |
