Appreciation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACADCAD| Earth was not Earth before her sons appeared | A |
| Nor Beauty Beauty ere young Love was born | B |
| And thou when I lay hidden wast as morn | B |
| At city windows touching eyelids bleared | A |
| To none by her fresh wingedness endeared | A |
| Unwelcome unto revellers outworn | B |
| I the last echoes of Diana's horn | B |
| In woodland heard and saw thee come and cheered | A |
| No longer wast thou then mere light fair soul | C |
| And more than simple duty moved thy feet | A |
| New colours rose in thee from fear from shame | D |
| From hope effused though not less pure a scroll | C |
| May men read on the heart I taught to beat | A |
| That change in thee if not thyself I claim | D |
