Misconception Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDDDD EDEDFGFG HIJIDEDE| I busied myself to find a sure | A |
| Snug hermitage | B |
| That should preserve my Love secure | A |
| From the world's rage | C |
| Where no unseemly saturnals | D |
| Or strident traffic roars | D |
| Or hum of intervolved cabals | D |
| Should echo at her doors | D |
| - | |
| I laboured that the diurnal spin | E |
| Of vanities | D |
| Should not contrive to suck her in | E |
| By dark degrees | D |
| And cunningly operate to blur | F |
| Sweet teachings I had begun | G |
| And then I went full heart to her | F |
| To expound the glad deeds done | G |
| - | |
| She looked at me and said thereto | H |
| With a pitying smile | I |
| And THIS is what has busied you | J |
| So long a while | I |
| O poor exhausted one I see | D |
| You have worn you old and thin | E |
| For naught Those moils you fear for me | D |
| I find most pleasure in | E |
