Ad Quintilianum Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEFFGG

O CHIEF director of the growing raceA
Of Rome the glory and of Rome the graceA
Me O Quintilian may you not forgiveB
Before from labour I make haste to liveC
Some burn to gather wealth lay hands on ruleD
Or with white statues fill the atrium fullE
The talking hearth the rafters sweet with smokeF
Live fountains and rough grass my line invokeF
A sturdy slave not too learned wifeG
Nights filled with slumber and a quiet lifeG

Robert Louis Stevenson
