Time Steals From Love Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBA AABC AADBACTime steals from Love all but Love's wings | A |
And how should aught but evil things | A |
Or any good but death befall | B |
Him that is thrall unto Time's thrall | B |
Slave to the lesser of these Kings | A |
- | |
O heart of youth that wakes and sings | A |
O golden vows and golden rings | A |
Life mocks you with the tale of all | B |
Time steals from Love | C |
- | |
O riven lute and writhen strings | A |
Dead bough whereto no blossom clings | A |
The glory was ephemeral | D |
Nor may our Autumn grief recall | B |
The passion of the perished Springs | A |
Time steals from Love | C |
