False Poets And True (to Wordsworth) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBBDEDDFDFGG| Look how the lark soars upward and is gone | A |
| Turning a spirit as he nears the sky | B |
| His voice is heard but body there is none | C |
| To fix the vague excursions of the eye | B |
| So poets' songs are with us tho' they die | B |
| Obscured and hid by death's oblivious shroud | D |
| And Earth inherits the rich melody | E |
| Like raining music from the morning cloud | D |
| Yet few there be who pipe so sweet and loud | D |
| Their voices reach us through the lapse of space | F |
| The noisy day is deafen'd by a crowd | D |
| Of undistinguished birds a twittering race | F |
| But only lark and nightingale forlorn | G |
| Fill up the silences of night and morn | G |
