The Three Monuments Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFEF| They hold their public meetings where | A |
| Our most renowned patriots stand | B |
| One among the birds of the air | A |
| A stumpier on either hand | B |
| And all the popular statesmen say | C |
| That purity built up the State | D |
| And after kept it from decay | C |
| And let all base ambition be | E |
| For intellect would make us proud | F |
| And pride bring in impurity | E |
| The three old rascals laugh aloud | F |
