In The Garden Vii: Early Autumn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCADDEDDE

IF while I sit flatter'd by this warm sunA
Death came to me and kiss'd my mouth and browB
And eyelids which the warm light hovers throughC
I should not count it strange Being half wonA
By hours that with a tender sadness runA
Who would not softly lean to lips which wooC
In the Earth's grave speech Nor could it aught undoC
Of Nature's calm observances begunA
Still to be here the idle autumn dayD
Pale leaves would circle down and lie unstirr'dD
Where'er they fell the tir'd wind hither callE
Her gentle fellows shining beetles strayD
Up their green courts and only yon shy birdD
A little bolder grow ere evenfallE
