Go Back To Antique Ages, If Thine Eyes Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBADEDEDE

Go back to antique ages if thine eyesA
The genuine mien and character would traceB
Of the rash Spirit that still holds her placeB
Prompting the world's audacious vanitiesC
Go back and see the Tower of Babel riseA
The pyramid extend its monstrous baseB
For some Aspirant of our short lived raceB
Anxious an aery name to immortalizeA
There too ere wiles and politic disputeD
Gave specious colouring to aim and actE
See the first mighty Hunter leave the bruteD
To chase mankind with men in armies packedE
For his field pastime high and absoluteD
While to dislodge his game cities are sackedE

William Wordsworth
