Time And Sentiment Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBCDEFDFEI see a fair young couple in a wood | A |
And as they go one bends to take a flower | B |
That so may be embalmed their happy hour | B |
And in another day a kindred mood | C |
Haply together or in solitude | C |
Recovered what the teeth of Time devour | B |
The joy the bloom and the illusive power | B |
Wherewith by their young blood they are endued | C |
To move all enviable framed in May | D |
And of an aspect sisterly with Truth | E |
Yet seek they with Time's laughing things to wed | F |
Who will be prompted on some pallid day | D |
To lift the hueless flower and show that dead | F |
Even such and by this token is their youth | E |
