Fancy And Tradition Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBCDEFDFG| The Lovers took within this ancient grove | A |
| Their last embrace beside those crystal springs | B |
| The Hermit saw the Angel spread his wings | B |
| For instant flight the Sage in yon alcove | A |
| Sate musing on that hill the Bard would rove | A |
| Not mute where now the linnet only sings | B |
| Thus everywhere to truth Tradition clings | B |
| Or Fancy localises Powers we love | C |
| Were only History licensed to take note | D |
| Of things gone by her meagre monuments | E |
| Would ill suffice for persons and events | F |
| There is an ampler page for man to quote | D |
| A readier book of manifold contents | F |
| Studied alike in palace and in cot | G |
