Rhyme Scheme: A BCBC DEDE FGFG HIJI

On His Birthday AugustA
-
THOU wak'st from happy sleep to playB
With bounding heart my boyC
Before thee lies a long bright dayB
Of summer and of joyC
-
Thou hast no heavy thought or dreamD
To cloud thy fearless eyeE
Long be it thus life's early streamD
Should still reflect the skyE
-
Yet ere the cares of life lie dimF
On thy young spirit's wingsG
Now in thy morn forget not HimF
From whom each pure thought springsG
-
So in the onward vale of tearsH
Where'er thy path may beI
When strength hath bowed to evil yearsJ
He will remember theeI
