Ad Quintilianum Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEFFGG| O 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 |
