To George Cruikshank, Esq. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFDGF| Artist whose hand with horror wing'd hath torn | A |
| From the rank life of towns this leaf and flung | B |
| The prodigy of full blown crime among | B |
| Valleys and men to middle fortune born | A |
| Not innocent indeed yet not forlorn | A |
| Say what shall calm us when such guests intrude | C |
| Like comets on the heavenly solitude | C |
| Shall breathless glades cheer'd by shy Dian's horn | A |
| Cold bubbling springs or caves Not so The Soul | D |
| Breasts her own griefs and urg'd too fiercely says | E |
| 'Why tremble True the nobleness of man | F |
| May be by man effac'd man can control | D |
| To pain to death the bent of his own days | G |
| Know thou the worst So much not more he can | F |
