Prelude Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEF| The mighty poets from their flowing store | A |
| Dispense like casual alms the careless ore | A |
| Through throngs of men their lonely way they go | B |
| Let fall their costly thoughts nor seem to know | B |
| Not mine the rich and showering hand that strews | C |
| The facile largess of a stintless Muse | C |
| A fitful presence seldom tarrying long | D |
| Capriciously she touches me to song | D |
| Then leaves me to lament her flight in vain | E |
| And wonder will she ever come again | F |
