The Choice Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFG HIHJ| PLAGUE take the dull and dusty town | A |
| Its paved and sordid mazes | B |
| Now Spring has trimmed her pretty gown | A |
| With buttercups and daisies | C |
| - | |
| - | |
| With half my heart I long to lie | D |
| Among the flowered grasses | E |
| And hear the loving leaves that sigh | D |
| As their sweet Mistress passes | E |
| - | |
| - | |
| Through picture shows I make my way | F |
| While flower crowned maids go maying | G |
| And all the cultured things I say | F |
| That cultured folk are saying | G |
| - | |
| - | |
| For I renounce Spring's darling face | H |
| With may bloom fresh upon it | I |
| My Mistress lives in Grosvenor place | H |
| And wears a Bond street bonnet | J |
