Stanzas Addressed To A Lady Coming Of Age Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF DDGG| There are moments we can look to we can cherish in the past | A |
| As the fleeting days that numbered them are dwindling to their last | A |
| Like the roses in the autumn that are severed from their stem | B |
| Like the dew bespangled petals when we sit and sigh for them | B |
| - | |
| There were sweetnesses unrivalled in those halcyon days of truth | C |
| Yet fairy hopes are budding in the sunset glow of youth | C |
| When like the cloudlets o'er the far horizon of the sea | D |
| Each fringed with sheeny splendour are the days of infancy | D |
| - | |
| Yet there are days and moments for enjoyment on before | E |
| Tho' the golden skies of youth shall never smile upon us more | E |
| When the brow of early womanhood looks forth to pleasures new | F |
| And sweeter lovelier visions are unfolding to the view | F |
| - | |
| O take the gift and when though look'st upon it let it be | D |
| A token of the wishes of the hopes I have for thee | D |
| A silent language which can speak when Friendship's voice is dumb | G |
| A small yet dear remembrancer in years that are to come | G |
