A Roman Winter-piece Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF| Now stands Soracte white with snow now bend the laboring trees | A |
| And with the sharpness of the frost the stagnant rivers freeze | A |
| Pile up the billets on the hearth to warmer cheer incline | B |
| And draw my Thaliarchus from the Sabine jar the wine | B |
| - | |
| The rest leave to the gods who still the fiercely warring wind | C |
| And to the morrow's store of good or evil give no mind | C |
| Whatever day your fortune grants that day mark up for gain | D |
| And in your youthful bloom do not the sweet amours disdain | D |
| - | |
| Now on the Campus and the squares when evening shades descend | E |
| Soft whisperings again are heard and loving voices blend | E |
| And now the low delightful laugh betrays the lurking maid | F |
| While from her slowly yielding arms the forfeiture is paid | F |
