Rhyme Scheme: AAAABCBCBCBCDCDCBDBD DEDEIf the rose in meek duty | A |
May dedicate humbly | A |
To her grower the beauty | A |
Wherewith she is comely | A |
If the mine to the miner | B |
The jewels that pined in it | C |
Earth to diviner | B |
The springs he divined in it | C |
To the grapes the wine pitcher | B |
Their juice that was crushed in it | C |
Viol to its witcher | B |
The music lay hushed in it | C |
If the lips may pay Gladness | D |
In laughters she wakened | C |
And the heart to its sadness | D |
Weeping unslakened | C |
If the hid and sealed coffer | B |
Whose having not his is | D |
To the loosers may proffer | B |
Their finding here this is | D |
Their lives if all livers | D |
To the Life of all living | E |
To you O dear givers | D |
I give your own giving | E |
