To Thos. Floyd Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDEED| How fares it friend since I by Fate annoy'd | A |
| Left the old home in need of livelier play | B |
| For body and mind How fare this many a day | B |
| The stubborn thews and ageless heart of Floyd | A |
| If not too well with country sport employ'd | A |
| Visit my flock the breezy hill that they | B |
| Choose for their fold and see for thence you may | B |
| From rising walls all roofless yet and void | A |
| The lovely city thronging tower and spire | C |
| The mind of the wide landscape dreaming deep | D |
| Grey silvery in the vale a shrine where keep | D |
| Memorian hopes their pale celestial fire | E |
| Like man's immortal conscience of desire | E |
| The spirit that watcheth in me ev'n in my sleep | D |
