West London Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDBDBD| Crouch'd on the pavement close by Belgrave Square | A |
| A tramp I saw ill moody and tongue tied | B |
| A babe was in her arms and at her side | B |
| A girl their clothes were rags their feet were bare | A |
| Some labouring men whose work lay somewhere there | A |
| Pass'd opposite she touch'd her girl who hied | B |
| Across and begg'd and came back satisfied | B |
| The rich she had let pass with frozen stare | A |
| Thought I Above her state this spirit towers | C |
| She will not ask of aliens but of friends | D |
| Of sharers in a common human fate | B |
| She turns from that cold succour which attneds | D |
| The unknown little from the unknowing great | B |
| And points us to a better time than ours | D |
