Song (untitled #3) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABAABB CDCDCCDD| Fair and false No dawn will greet | A |
| Thy waking beauty as of old | B |
| The little flower beneath thy feet | A |
| Is alien to thy smile so cold | B |
| The merry bird flown up to meet | A |
| Young morning from his nest i' the wheat | A |
| Scatters his joy to wood and wold | B |
| But scorns the arrogance of gold | B |
| - | |
| False and fair I scarce know why | C |
| But standing in the lonely air | D |
| And underneath the blessed sky | C |
| I plead for thee in my despair | D |
| For thee cut off both heart and eye | C |
| From living truth thy spring quite dry | C |
| For thee that heaven my thought may share | D |
| Forget how false and think how fair | D |
