L'allee [english] Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADDEFFEGHGI| Powdered and rouged as in the sheepcotes' day | A |
| Fragile 'mid her enormous ribbon bows | B |
| Along the shaded alley where green grows | C |
| The moss on the old seats she wends her way | A |
| With mincing graces and affected airs | D |
| Such as more oft a petted parrot wears | D |
| Her long gown with the train is blue the fan | E |
| She spreads between her jewelled fingers slim | F |
| Is merry with a love scene of so dim | F |
| Suggestion her eyes smile the while they scan | E |
| Blonde dainty nose plump cherry lips divine | G |
| With pride unconscious Subtler certainly | H |
| Than is the mouche there set to underline | G |
| The rather foolish brightness of the eye | I |
