The Lords Of Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDECFGHIIJJKKLLMMN O

The lords of life the lords of lifeA
I saw them passB
In their own guiseC
Like and unlikeD
Portly and grimE
Use and SurpriseC
Surface and DreamF
Succession swift and spectral WrongG
Temperament without a tongueH
And the inventor of the gameI
Omnipresent without nameI
Some to see some to be guessedJ
They marched from east to westJ
Little man least of allK
Among the legs of his guardians tallK
Walked about with puzzled lookL
Him by the hand dear nature tookL
Dearest nature strong and kindM
Whispered 'Darling never mindM
Tomorrow they will wear another faceN
The founder thou these are thy race 'O
