Roses On A Brier Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ABAB CBCB

Roses on a brierA
Pearls from out the bitter seaB
Such is earth's desireA
However pure it beB
-
Neither bud nor brierA
Neither pearl nor brine for meB
Be stilled my long desireA
There shall be no more seaB
-
Be stilled my passionate heartC
Old earth shall end new earth shall beB
Be still and earn thy partC
Where shall be no more seaB

Christina Rossetti
