In Pearl And Gold Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABABCCDDEEFFGHIIJJK KFFFFFLLLLLFFLLM| WHEN pearl and gold o'er deeps of musk | A |
| The moon curves silvering the dusk | A |
| As in a garden dreaming | B |
| A lily slips its dewy husk | A |
| A firefly in its gleaming | B |
| I of my garden am a guest | C |
| My garden that in beauty dressed | C |
| Of simple shrubs and oldtime flowers | D |
| Chats with me of the perished hours | D |
| When she companioned me in life | E |
| Living remote from care and strife | E |
| It says to me 'How sad and slow | F |
| The hours of daylight come and go | F |
| Until the Night walks here again | G |
| With moon and starlight in her train | H |
| And she and I with perfumed words | I |
| Of winds and waters dreaming birds | I |
| And flowers and crickets and the moon | J |
| For hour on hour in soul commune | J |
| And you and you | K |
| Sit here and listen in the dew | K |
| For her the love you used to know | F |
| Who often walked here long ago | F |
| Long ago | F |
| The young sweet love you used to know | F |
| Long ago | F |
| Whom oft I watched with violet eye | L |
| Or eye of dew as she passed by | L |
| As she passed by | L |
| And I reply with half a sigh | L |
| 'You knew her too as well as I | L |
| That young sweet love of long ago | F |
| That young sweet love who walked here slow | F |
| Oh speak no more of the days gone by | L |
| Dear days gone by | L |
| Lest I lay me down on your heart and die ' | M |
