A Criticism Of Critics Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GHGH| How often have the critics trained | A |
| To look upon the sky | B |
| Through telescopes securely chained | A |
| Forgot the naked eye | B |
| - | |
| Within the compass of their glass | C |
| Each smallest star they knew | D |
| And not a meteor could pass | C |
| But they were looking through | D |
| - | |
| When a new planet shed its rays | E |
| Beyond their field of vision | F |
| And simple folk ran out to gaze | E |
| They laughed in high derision | F |
| - | |
| They railed upon the senseless throng | G |
| Who cheered the brave new light | H |
| And yet the learned men were wrong | G |
| The simple folk were right | H |
