Philosopher Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEF GHIJKL| Philosophers are lined with eyes within | A |
| And being so the sage unmakes the man | B |
| In love he cannot therefore cease his trade | C |
| Scarce the first blush has overspread his cheek | D |
| He feels it introverts his learned eye | E |
| To catch the unconscious heart in the very act | F |
| - | |
| His mother died the only friend he had | G |
| Some tears escaped but his philosophy | H |
| Couched like a cat sat watching close behind | I |
| And throttled all his passion Is't not like | J |
| That devil spider that devours her mate | K |
| Scarce freed from her embraces | L |
