Upon A Child. An Epitaph Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDE

But born and like a short delightA
I glided by my parents' sightA
That done the harder fates deniedB
My longer stay and so I diedB
If pitying my sad parents' tearsC
You'll spill a tear or two with theirsC
And with some flowers my grave bestrewD
Love and they'll thank you for't AdieuE

Robert Herrick
