Written In Zimmermann's Solitude Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRST UJ| Hail melancholy sage whose thoughtful eye | A |
| Shrunk from the mere spectator's careless gaze | B |
| And in retirement sought the social smile | C |
| The heart endearing aspect and the voice | D |
| Of soothing tenderness which Friendship breathes | E |
| And which sounds far more grateful to the ear | F |
| Than the soft notes of distant flute at eve | G |
| Stealing across the waters Zimmermann | H |
| Thou draw'st not Solitude as others do | I |
| With folded arms with pensive nun like air | J |
| And tearful eye averted from mankind | K |
| No warm benign and cheerful she appears | L |
| The friend of Health of Piety and Peace | M |
| The kind Samaritan that heals our woes | N |
| The nurse of Science and of future fame | O |
| The gentle harbinger her meek abode | P |
| Is that dear home which still the virtuous heart | Q |
| E'en in the witching maze of Pleasure's dance | R |
| In wild Ambition's dream regards with love | S |
| And hopes with fond security to pass | T |
| The evening of a long protracted day | U |
| Serenely joyful there | J |
