Beauty And The Bird Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEFGFGF| SHE fluted with her mouth as when one sips | A |
| And gently waved her golden head inclin'd | B |
| Outside his cage close to the window blind | B |
| Till her fond bird with little turns and dips | A |
| Piped low to her of sweet companionships | A |
| And when he made an end some seed took she | C |
| And fed him from her tongue which rosily | D |
| Peeped as a piercing bud between her lips | A |
| And like the child in Chaucer on whose tongue | E |
| The Blessed Mary laid when he was dead | F |
| A grain who straightway praised her name in song | G |
| Even so when she a little lightly red | F |
| Now turned on me and laughed I heard the throng | G |
| Of inner voices praise her golden head | F |
