Autumn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBABCBCBC| Thou comest Autumn heralded by the rain | A |
| With banners by great gales incessant fanned | B |
| Brighter than brightest silks of Samarcand | B |
| And stately oxen harnessed to thy wain | A |
| Thou standest like imperial Charlemagne | A |
| Upon thy bridge of gold thy royal hand | B |
| Outstretched with benedictions o'er the land | B |
| Blessing the farms through all thy vast domain | A |
| Thy shield is the red harvest moon suspended | B |
| So long beneath the heaven's o'er hanging eaves | C |
| Thy steps are by the farmer's prayers attended | B |
| Like flames upon an altar shine the sheaves | C |
| And following thee in thy ovation splendid | B |
| Thine almoner the wind scatters the golden leaves | C |
