Of His Ladies Old Age Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: A B B A C C A D D B E E B

When you are very old at eveningA
-
You'll sit and spin beside the fire and sayB
-
Humming my songs 'Ah well ah well a dayB
-
When I was young of me did Ronsard sing '-
-
None of your maidens that doth hear the thingA
-
Albeit with her weary task foredoneC
-
But wakens at my name and calls you oneC
-
Blest to be held in long rememberingA
-
-
-
I shall be low beneath the earth and laidD
-
On sleep a phantom in the myrtle shadeD
-
While you beside the fire a grandame greyB
-
My love your pride remember and regretE
-
Ah love me love we may be happy yetE
-
And gather roses while 'tis called to dayB
