Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDAB EBFBEEB BGHGBBGThe golden discs of the rattlesnake weed | A |
That spangle the woods and dance | B |
No gleam of gold that the twilights hold | C |
Is strong as their necromance | B |
For under the oaks where the woodpaths lead | D |
The golden discs of the rattlesnake weed | A |
Are the May's own utterance | B |
- | |
The azure stars of the bluet bloom | E |
That sprinkle the woodland's trance | B |
No blink of blue that a cloud lets through | F |
Is sweet as their countenance | B |
For over the knolls that the woods perfume | E |
The azure stars of the bluet bloom | E |
Are the light of the May's own glance | B |
- | |
With her wondering words and her looks she comes | B |
In a sunbeam of a gown | G |
She needs but think and the blossoms wink | H |
But look and they shower down | G |
By orchard ways where the wild bee hums | B |
With her wondering words and her looks she comes | B |
Like a little maid to town | G |
