The Crown Of Years Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCA ACCA DEFDEF| Years grow and gather each a gem | A |
| Lustrous with laughter and with tears | B |
| And cunning Time a crown of years | C |
| Contrives for her who weareth them | A |
| - | |
| No chance can snatch this diadem | A |
| It trembles not with hopes or fears | C |
| It shines before the rose appears | C |
| And when the leaves forsake her stem | A |
| - | |
| Time sets his jewels one by one | D |
| Then wherefore mourn the wreaths that lie | E |
| In attic chambers of the past | F |
| They withered ere the day was done | D |
| This coronal will never die | E |
| Nor shall you lose it at the last | F |
