Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEFEGGF| GREAT men have been among us hands that penn'd | A |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp And tongues that utter'd wisdom better none | B |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp The later Sidney Marvel Harrington | B |
| Young Vane and others who call'd Milton friend | A |
| These moralists could act and comprehend | A |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp They knew how genuine glory was put on | C |

| Perpetual emptiness unceasing change | E |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp No single volume paramount no code | G |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp No master spirit no determined road | G |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp But equally a want of books and men | F |
