Of His Ladies Old Age Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A B B A C C A D D B E E BWhen you are very old at evening | A |
- | |
You'll sit and spin beside the fire and say | B |
- | |
Humming my songs 'Ah well ah well a day | B |
- | |
When I was young of me did Ronsard sing ' | - |
- | |
None of your maidens that doth hear the thing | A |
- | |
Albeit with her weary task foredone | C |
- | |
But wakens at my name and calls you one | C |
- | |
Blest to be held in long remembering | A |
- | |
- | |
- | |
I shall be low beneath the earth and laid | D |
- | |
On sleep a phantom in the myrtle shade | D |
- | |
While you beside the fire a grandame grey | B |
- | |
My love your pride remember and regret | E |
- | |
Ah love me love we may be happy yet | E |
- | |
And gather roses while 'tis called to day | B |
