England, 1802 Iii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEFEGGF| Great men have been among us hands that penn'd | A |
| And tongues that utter'd wisdom better none | B |
| The later Sidney Marvel Harrington | B |
| Young Vane and others who call'd Milton friend | A |
| These moralists could act and comprehend | A |
| They knew how genuine glory was put on | C |
| Taught us how rightfully a nation shone | D |
| In splendour what strength was that would not bend | A |
| But in magnanimous meekness France 'tis strange | E |
| Hath brought forth no such souls as we had then | F |
| Perpetual emptiness unceasing change | E |
| No single volume paramount no code | G |
| No master spirit no determined road | G |
| But equally a want of books and men | F |
