An Answer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGHH| Come let us go into the lane love mine | A |
| And mark and gather what the Autumn grows | B |
| The creamy elder mellowed into wine | A |
| The russet hip that was the pink white rose | B |
| The amber woodbine into rubies turned | C |
| The blackberry that was the bramble born | D |
| Nor let the seeded clematis be spurned | C |
| Nor pearls that now are corals of the thorn | D |
| Look what a lovely posy we have made | E |
| From the wild garden of the waning year | F |
| So when dear love your summer is decayed | E |
| Beauty more touching than is clustered here | G |
| Will linger in your life and I shall cling | H |
| Closely as now nor ask if it be Spring | H |
