An Inscription Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGAGHIJKL| Shepherd or Huntsman or worn Mariner | A |
| Whate'er thou art who wouldst allay thy thirst | B |
| Drink and be glad This cistern of white stone | C |
| Arch'd and o'erwrought with many a sacred verse | D |
| This iron cup chain'd for the general use | E |
| And these rude seats of earth within the grove | F |
| Were giv'n by FATIMA Borne hence a bride | G |
| 'Twas here she turn'd from her beloved sire | A |
| To see his face no more Oh if thou canst | G |
| 'Tis not far off visit his tomb with flowers | H |
| And may some pious hand with water fill | I |
| The two small cells scoop'd in the marble there | J |
| That birds may come and drink upon his grave | K |
| Making it holy | L |
