The Good Conceit Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BCBC DEDF GHIH| Out of the cloud that covers me | A |
| And blots the stars and seldom lifts | B |
| I thank whatever gods may be | A |
| For my indubitable gifts | B |
| - | |
| Under the whip upon the setts | B |
| Men drive me many a galling mile | C |
| My stock of editors' regrets | B |
| Would fill a barrow but I smile | C |
| - | |
| Fast by this trade of wind and wit | D |
| I mean to hold till life be done | E |
| And every year I stay in it | D |
| Finds and shall find me tugging on | F |
| - | |
| It matters not how stiff and sheer | G |
| The climb how difficult the sum | H |
| I am the man they've got to hear | I |
| I am the man that's bound to come | H |
