I believe you have done it, if present participles are permitted!. I posted one asking if we can use participles, which are really only part adjective!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Well done! These short verse forms are more difficult than they appear!. Wasn't Tyburn Hill where they hanged people in London!?

You followed the form perfectly!. My book says a tyburn is a six line poem consisting of 2, 2, 2, 2, 9, 9 syllables in which the first four lines rhyme and are all descriptive words!. The last two lines rhyme and incorporate the first, second, third, and fourth lines as the 5th through 8th syllables!.

You nailed it, and it makes sense!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I do not know the exact rules nor am I likely to try!. This though looks correct and more importantly makes sense!. Love your title also!. My compliments!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Don't know the rules though!.
