The Earl Of Breadalbane's Ruined Mansion And Family Burial-place, Near Killin Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABABACAACAA| Well sang the Bard who called the grave in strains | A |
| Thoughtful and sad the narrow house No style | B |
| Of fond sepulchral flattery can beguile | B |
| Grief of her sting nor cheat where he detains | A |
| The sleeping dust stern Death How reconcile | B |
| With truth or with each other decked remains | A |
| Of a once warm Abode and that 'new' Pile | B |
| For the departed built with curious pains | A |
| And mausolean pomp Yet here they stand | C |
| Together 'mid trim walks and artful bowers | A |
| To be looked down upon by ancient hills | A |
| That for the living and the dead demand | C |
| And prompt a harmony of genuine powers | A |
| Concord that elevates the mind and stills | A |
