The Journeyman Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGHGAIAAI| Not baser than his own homekeeping kind | A |
| Whose journeyman he is | B |
| Blind sons and breastless daughters of the blind | A |
| Whose darkness pardons his | B |
| About the world while all the world approves | C |
| The pimp of Fashion steals | D |
| With all the angels mourning their dead loves | E |
| Behind his bloody heels | D |
| It my be late when Nature cries Enough | F |
| As one day cry she will | G |
| And man may have the wit to put her off | H |
| With shifts a season still | G |
| But man may find the pinch importunate | A |
| And fall to blaming men | I |
| Blind sires and breastless mothers of his fate | A |
| It may be late and may be very late | A |
| Too late for blaming then | I |
