Have You Seen But A Bright Lily Grow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCCCDD

Have you seen but a bright lily growA
Before rude hands have touched itB
Have you marked but the fall of snowA
Before the soil hath smutched itB
Have you felt the wool of beaverC
Or swan's down everC
Or have smelt o' the bud o' the brierC
Or the nard in the fireC
Or have tasted the bag of the beeD
O so white O so soft O so sweet is sheD

Ben Jonson
