Ad Quintilianum Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEFFGGO CHIEF director of the growing race | A |
Of Rome the glory and of Rome the grace | A |
Me O Quintilian may you not forgive | B |
Before from labour I make haste to live | C |
Some burn to gather wealth lay hands on rule | D |
Or with white statues fill the atrium full | E |
The talking hearth the rafters sweet with smoke | F |
Live fountains and rough grass my line invoke | F |
A sturdy slave not too learned wife | G |
Nights filled with slumber and a quiet life | G |
