The Scholars Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDE FGFHII| Bald heads forgetful of their sins | A |
| Old learned respectable bald heads | B |
| Edit and annotate the lines | C |
| That young men tossing on their beds | B |
| Rhymed out in love's despair | D |
| To flatter beauty's ignorant ear | E |

| All shuffle there all cough in ink | F |
| All wear the carpet with their shoes | G |
| All think what other people think | F |
| All know the man their neighbour knows | H |
| Lord what would they say | I |
| Did their Catullus walk that way | I |
