Perfect Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABBA DEFGBB| Beloved those who moan of love's brief day | A |
| Shall find but little grace with me I guess | B |
| Who know too well this passion's tenderness | C |
| To deem that it shall lightly pass away | A |
| A moment's interlude in life's dull play | A |
| Though many loves have lingered to distress | B |
| So shall not ours sweet Lady ne'ertheless | B |
| But deepen with us till both heads be grey | A |
| - | |
| For perfect love is like a fair green plant | D |
| That fades not with its blossoms but lives on | E |
| And gentle lovers shall not come to want | F |
| Though fancy with its first mad dream be gone | G |
| Sweet is the flower whose radiant glory flies | B |
| But sweeter still the green that never dies | B |
