Composed After Reading A Newspaper Of The Day Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDAEFFEFG| People your chains are severing link by link | A |
| Soon shall the Rich be leveled down the Poor | B |
| Meet them half way Vain boast for These the more | C |
| They thus would rise must low and lower sink | A |
| Till by repentance stung they fear to think | A |
| While all lie prostrate save the tyrant few | D |
| Bent in quick turns each other to undo | D |
| And mix the poison they themselves must drink | A |
| Mistrust thyself vain Country cease to cry | E |
| Knowledge will save me from the threatened woe | F |
| For if than other rash ones more thou know | F |
| Yet on presumptuous wing as far would fly | E |
| Above thy knowledge as they dared to go | F |
| Thou wilt provoke a heavier penalty | G |
William Wordsworth
