On Receiving A Book From Dante Rossetti Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBADEEFFD| Since he is Poet of whom gods ordain | A |
| Some most anthropic and perhuman act | B |
| Whereby his manhood shall so man his fact | B |
| That but his man of man is born again | C |
| And since humanity is most humane | A |
| Not at our pyramid's base where we have tact | B |
| Of dust and supersurge the common tract | B |
| Of being but up there where form doth reign | A |
| To apex let a Poet ask no fame | D |
| But that which high o'er floods of Life and Death | E |
| From singing arks Ararat echoeth | E |
| To Ararat and let him rather be | F |
| Oh Poet writ on yonder page by thee | F |
| Than hear what vulgar breath should make his world wide name | D |
