To M. Leonard Willan, His Peculiar Friend Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEFFGGHH| I will be short and having quickly hurl'd | A |
| This line about live thou throughout the world | A |
| Who art a man for all scenes unto whom | B |
| What's hard to others nothing's troublesome | C |
| Can'st write the comic tragic strain and fall | D |
| From these to pen the pleasing pastoral | E |
| Who fli'st at all heights prose and verse run'st through | F |
| Find'st here a fault and mend'st the trespass too | F |
| For which I might extol thee but speak less | G |
| Because thyself art coming to the press | G |
| And then should I in praising thee be slow | H |
| Posterity will pay thee what I owe | H |
