Beauty's Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGH

What's Life still changing ev'ry hourA
Tis all the seasons in a DayB
The Smile the Tear the Sun the Show'r'A
Tis now December now tis MayB
At morn we hail some envied QueenC
At eve she sinks some Cottage guestD
Yet if contentment gilds the sceneC
Contentment makes the Cottage blestD
-
-
Who more than I this truth can feelE
I feel it yet am charm'd to findF
While thus I turn the spinning wheelE
The station humbles not the mindF
Ah no in days of youth and healthG
Nature will smile tho' fortune frownH
Be this my song Content is wealth'G
And duty ev'ry toil shall crownH

Charles Lamb
