To The Gnat Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEBFGHCICJ| When by the green wood side at summer eve | A |
| Poetic visions charm my closing eye | B |
| And fairy scenes that Fancy loves to weave | A |
| Shift to wild notes of sweetest Minstrelsy | C |
| 'Tis thine to range in busy quest of prey | D |
| Thy feathery antlers quivering with delight | E |
| Brush from my lids the hues of heav'n away | D |
| And all is Solitude and all is Night | E |
| Ah now thy barbed shaft relentless fly | B |
| Unsheaths its terrors in the sultry air | F |
| No guardian sylph in golden panoply | G |
| Lifts the broad shield and points the glittering spear | H |
| Now near and nearer rush thy whirring wings | C |
| Thy dragon scales still wet with human gore | I |
| Hark thy shrill horn its fearful laram flings | C |
| I wake in horror and 'dare sleep no more ' | J |
