Top of the class, Brian. As you always are. It's called a cento. Some of the lines are actually by Marlowe and one each by Robert Frost and a songwriter whose name escapes me. A lot of effort for not much result. Very popular among late Latin writers.
Thank you for liking my other piece. Writing that was a pure pleasure. And I am proud to have filched my last pair of rhymes from the great Cole Porter.
Oh, and I confidently expect your (rhyming) verse to win something.
