Quand Meme Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AAAA BBCC DEFF

AGE pauses on his toilsome wayA
To let youth pluck her flowers of playA
Flowers are not always but we mayA
Cut thorns and thistles any dayA
-
Would Fate but hold her hand one hourB
Then might we pluck love's perfect flowerB
Yet full security might missC
The perfume of one hour like thisC
-
For all our joys are snatched from FateD
Through years her ban makes desolateE
We wrest our love from doubt and fearF
And find it so more sweet more dearF
