In The Garden I: The Garden Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDBBDEFEEEF| PAST the town's clamour is a garden full | A |
| Of loneness and old greenery at noon | B |
| When birds are hush'd save one dim cushat's croon | B |
| A ripen'd silence hangs beneath the cool | C |
| Great branches basking roses dream and drop | D |
| A petal and dream still and summer's boon | B |
| Of mellow grasses to be levell'd soon | B |
| By a dew drenched scythe will hardly stop | D |
| At the uprunning mounds of chestnut trees | E |
| Still let me muse in this rich haunt by day | F |
| And know all night in dusky placidness | E |
| It lies beneath the summer while great ease | E |
| Broods in the leaves and every light wind's stress | E |
| Lifts a faint odour down the verdurous way | F |
