A Daughter Of Eve Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAB CDCCD EFEEFA fool I was to sleep at noon | A |
And wake when night is chilly | B |
Beneath the comfortless cold moon | A |
A fool to pluck my rose too soon | A |
A fool to snap my lily | B |
- | |
My garden plot I have not kept | C |
Faded and all forsaken | D |
I weep as I have never wept | C |
Oh it was summer when I slept | C |
It's winter now I waken | D |
- | |
Talk what you please of future spring | E |
And sun warm'd sweet to morrow | F |
Stripp'd bare of hope and everything | E |
No more to laugh no more to sing | E |
I sit alone with sorrow | F |
