Horace's Philosophy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCAAABB| What the end the gods have destined unto thee and unto me | A |
| Ask not 'tis forbidden knowledge Be content Leuconoe | B |
| Let alone the fortune tellers How much better to endure | C |
| Whatsoever shall betide us even though we be not sure | C |
| Whether Jove grants other winters whether this our last shall be | A |
| That upon the rocks opposing dashes now the Tuscan sea | A |
| Be thou wise and strain thy wines and mindful of life's brevity | A |
| Stint thy hopes The envious moments even while we speak have flown | B |
| Trusting nothing to the future seize the day that is our own | B |
