Epitaph On Thomas Parnell Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEE| THIS tomb inscrib'd to gentle Parnell's name | A |
| May speak our gratitude but not his fame | A |
| What heart but feels his sweetly moral lay | B |
| That leads to truth through pleasure's flowery way | B |
| Celestial themes confess'd his tuneful aid | C |
| And Heaven that lent him genius was repaid | C |
| Needless to him the tribute we bestow | D |
| The transitory breath of fame below | D |
| More lasting rapture from his works shall rise | E |
| While Converts thank their poet in the skies | E |
