The Last Masquerade Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEED FGGF| A wan new garment of young green | A |
| Touched as you turned your soft brown hair | B |
| And in me surged the strangest prayer | B |
| Ever in lover's heart hath been | C |
| - | |
| That I who saw your youth's bright page | D |
| A rainbow change from robe to robe | E |
| Might see you on this earthly globe | E |
| Crowned with the silver crown of age | D |
| - | |
| Your dear hair powdered in strange guise | F |
| Your dear face touched with colours pale | G |
| And gazing through the mask and veil | G |
| The mirth of your immortal eyes | F |
