When I Heard The Learn'd Astronomer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH| When I heard the learn'd astronomer | A |
| When the proofs the figures were ranged in columns before me | B |
| When I was shown the charts and the diagrams to add divide and measure them | C |
| When I sitting heard the astronomer where he lectured with much applause in the lecture room | D |
| How soon unaccountable I became tired and sick | E |
| Till rising and gliding out I wander'd off by myself | F |
| In the mystical moist night air and from time to time | G |
| Look'd up in perfect silence at the stars | H |
