Composed On The Banks Of A Rocky Stream Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEEDDEDogmatic Teachers of the snow white fur | A |
Ye wrangling Schoolmen of the scarlet hood | B |
Who with a keenness not to be withstood | B |
Press the point home or falter and demur | A |
Checked in your course by many a teasing burr | A |
These natural council seats your acrid blood | C |
Might cool and as the Genius of the flood | C |
Stoops willingly to animate and spur | A |
Each lighter function slumbering in the brain | D |
Yon eddying balls of foam these arrowy gleams | E |
That o'er the pavement of the surging streams | E |
Welter and flash a synod might detain | D |
With subtle speculations haply vain | D |
But surely less so than your far fetched themes | E |
