Your Own Fair Youth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACDA EEDEEC| Your own fair youth you care so little for it | A |
| Smiling toward Heaven you would not stay the advances | B |
| Of time and change upon your hapiest fancies | C |
| I keep your golden hour and will restore it | A |
| If ever in time to come you would explore it | A |
| Your old self whose thoughts went like last year's pansies | C |
| Look unto me no mirror keeps its glances | D |
| In my unfailing praises now I store it | A |
| - | |
| To guard all joys of yours from Time's estranging | E |
| I shall then be a treasury where your gay | E |
| Happy and pensive past unaltered is | D |
| I shall then be a garden charmed from changing | E |
| In which your June has never passed away | E |
| Walk there awhile among my memories | C |
