Humanity Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBC DEDEDE| Ever exulting in thyself on fire | A |
| To flaunt the purple of the Universe | B |
| To strut and strut and thy great part rehearse | B |
| Ever the slave of every proud desire | A |
| Come now a little down where sports thy sire | A |
| Choose thy small better from thy abounding worse | B |
| Prove thou thy lordship who hadst dust for nurse | B |
| And for thy swaddling the primeval mire | C |
| - | |
| Then stooped our Manhood nearer deep and still | D |
| As from earth's mountains an unvoyaged sea | E |
| Hushed my faint voice in its great peace until | D |
| It seemed but a bird's cry in eternity | E |
| And in its future loomed the undreamable | D |
| And in its past slept simple men like me | E |
