The Laurustinus Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAACCDDAEAEFFGG| Fair tree of winter fresh and flowering | A |
| When all around is dead and dry | B |
| Whose ruby buds though storms are louring | A |
| Spread their white blossoms to the sky | A |
| Green are thy leaves more purely green | C |
| Through every changing period seen | C |
| And when the gaudy months are past | D |
| Thy loveliest season is the last | D |
| Be thou an emblem thus unfolding | A |
| The history of that maiden's mind | E |
| Whose eye these humble lines beholding | A |
| In them her future lot may find | E |
| Through life's mutations may she be | F |
| A modest evergreen like thee | F |
| Though bless'd in youth in age more bless'd | G |
| Still be her latest days the best | G |
