To Austin Dobson Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFG HCCC| Yes urban is your Muse and owns | A |
| An empire based on London stones | A |
| Yet flow'rs as mountain violets sweet | B |
| Spring from the pavement 'neath her feet | B |
| - | |
| Of wilder birth this Muse of mine | C |
| Hill cradled and baptized with brine | C |
| And 'tis for her a sweet despair | D |
| To watch that courtly step and air | D |
| - | |
| Yet surely she without reproof | E |
| Greeting may send from realms aloof | E |
| And even claim a tie in blood | F |
| And dare to deem it sisterhood | G |
| - | |
| For well we know those Maidens be | H |
| All daughters of Mnemosyne | C |
| And 'neath the unifying sun | C |
| Many the songs but Song is one | C |
