Lawn Tennis In The Temple Gardens Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABC ABBAC

Not in contempt but to our sport inclinedA
Smile on us shades of Judges short and tallB
Portrayed on windows of the Temple HallB
There was a time that ye grave thoughts resignedA
Then warm with sack the Serjeants' hearts waxed kindA
In mirth Lords Keepers danced the galliard allB
Not in contemptC
-
Of pleasures past the shadows here we findA
Gay strife on brighter swards we thus recallB
Where maiden laughter winged the flying ballB
Declare us fair ones with a merry mindA
Not in contemptC
