The Leaves Of Lign Aloes Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BCBC DEDE FAFA| Drop drop from the leaves of lign aloes | A |
| O honey dew drop from the tree | B |
| Float up through your clear river shallows | A |
| White lilies beloved of the bee | B |
| - | |
| Let the people O Queen say and bless thee | B |
| Her bounty drops soft as the dew | C |
| And spotless in honor confess thee | B |
| As lilies are spotless in hue | C |
| - | |
| On the roof stands yon white stork awaking | D |
| His feathers flush rosy the while | E |
| For lo from the blushing east breaking | D |
| The sun sheds the bloom of his smile | E |
| - | |
| Let them boast of thy word It is certain | F |
| We doubt it no more let them say | A |
| Than to morrow that night's dusky curtain | F |
| Shall roll back its folds for the day | A |
