A Fancy From Fontenelle Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: A BBCC AADD EEFF GG

De m moires de Roses on n'a point vu mourir le JardinierA
-
-
The Rose in the garden slipped her budB
And she laughed in the pride of her youthful bloodB
As she thought of the Gardener standing byC
He is old so old And he soon must dieC
-
The full Rose waxed in the warm June airA
And she spread and spread till her heart lay bareA
And she laughed once more as she heard his treadD
He is older now He will soon be deadD
-
But the breeze of the morning blew and foundE
That the leaves of the blown Rose strewed the groundE
And he came at noon that Gardener oldF
And he raked them gently under the mouldF
-
And I wove the thing to a random rhymeG
For the Rose is Beauty the Gardener TimeG

Henry Austin Dobson
