The Scholars Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDE FGFHII

Bald heads forgetful of their sinsA
Old learned respectable bald headsB
Edit and annotate the linesC
That young men tossing on their bedsB
Rhymed out in love's despairD
To flatter beauty's ignorant earE
-
All shuffle there all cough in inkF
All wear the carpet with their shoesG
All think what other people thinkF
All know the man their neighbour knowsH
Lord what would they sayI
Did their Catullus walk that wayI
