Love And Death Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDAEAFGHGIJE| What time the mighty moon was gathering light | A |
| Love paced the thymy plots of Paradise | B |
| And all about him roll'd his lustrous eyes | C |
| When turning round a cassia full in view | D |
| Death walking all alone beneath a yew | D |
| And talking to himself first met his sight | A |
| 'You must begone ' said Death 'these walks are mine ' | E |
| Love wept and spread his sheeny vans for flight | A |
| Yet ere he parted said 'This hour is thine | F |
| Thou art the shadow of life and as the tree | G |
| Stands in the sun and shadows all beneath | H |
| So in the light of great eternity | G |
| Life eminent creates the shade of death | I |
| The shadow passeth when the tree shall fall | J |
| But I shall reign for ever over all ' | E |
