To Edward Fitzgerald Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCBDDDDDD| I chanced upon a new book yesterday | A |
| I opened it and where my finger lay | A |
| 'Twixt page and uncut page these words I read | B |
| Some six or seven at most and learned thereby | C |
| That you Fitzgerald whom by ear and eye | C |
| She never knew thanked God my wife was dead | B |
| Aye dead and were yourself alive good Fitz | D |
| How to return you thanks would task my wits | D |
| Kicking you seems the common lot of curs | D |
| While more appropriate greeting lends you grace | D |
| Surely to spit there glorifies your face | D |
| Spitting from lips once sanctified by hers | D |
