The Uses Of Poetry Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABDAEFEFEFI've fond anticipation of a day | A |
O'erfilled with pure diversion presently | B |
For I must read a lady poesy | C |
The while we glide by many a leafy bay | A |
Hid deep in rushes where at random play | A |
The glossy black winged May flies or whence flee | B |
Hush throated nestlings in alarm | D |
Whom we have idly frighted with our boat's long sway | A |
For lest o'ersaddened by such woes as spring | E |
To rural peace from our meek onward trend | F |
What else more fit We'll draw the latch string | E |
And close the door of sense then satiate wend | F |
On poesy's transforming giant wing | E |
To worlds afar whose fruits all anguish mend | F |
