Sonnet Lix: Love's Last Gift Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADEEDFF| Love to his singer held a glistening leaf | A |
| And said The rose tree and the apple tree | B |
| Have fruits to vaunt or flowers to lure the bee | B |
| And golden shafts are in the feathered sheaf | A |
| Of the great harvest marshal the year's chief | A |
| Victorious Summer aye and 'neath warm sea | B |
| Strange secret grasses lurk inviolably | C |
| Between the filtering channels of sunk reef | A |
| All are my blooms and all sweet blooms of love | D |
| To thee I gave while Spring and Summer sang | E |
| But Autumn stops to listen with some pang | E |
| From those worse things the wind is moaning of | D |
| Only this laurel dreads no winter days | F |
| Take my last gift thy heart hath sung my praise | F |
