The Wedded Lover Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDBCDB

I READ in our old journals of the daysA
When our first love was April sweet and newB
How fair it blossomed and deep rooted grewB
Despite the adverse time and our amazeA
At moon and stars and beauty beyond praiseA
That burgeoned all about us gold and blueB
The heaven arched us in and all we knewB
Was gentleness We walked on happy waysA
-
They said by now the path would be more steepC
the sunsets paler and less mild the airD
Rightly we heeded not it was not trueB
We will not tell the secret let it keepC
I know not how I thought those days so fairD
These being so much fairer spent with youB
