On Seeing A Tuft Of Snowdrops In A Storm Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBADEFEED| When haughty expectations prostrate lie | A |
| And grandeur crouches like a guilty thing | B |
| Oft shall the lowly weak till nature bring | B |
| Mature release in fair society | C |
| Survive and Fortune's utmost anger try | A |
| Like these frail snowdrops that together cling | B |
| And nod their helmets smitten by the wing | B |
| Of many a furious whirl blast sweeping by | A |
| Observe the faithful flowers if small to great | D |
| May lead the thoughts thus struggling used to stand | E |
| The Emathian phalanx nobly obstinate | F |
| And so the bright immortal Theban band | E |
| Whom onset fiercely urged at Jove's command | E |
| Might overwhelm but could not separate | D |
