Upon A Child. An Epitaph Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDEBut born and like a short delight | A |
I glided by my parents' sight | A |
That done the harder fates denied | B |
My longer stay and so I died | B |
If pitying my sad parents' tears | C |
You'll spill a tear or two with theirs | C |
And with some flowers my grave bestrew | D |
Love and they'll thank you for't Adieu | E |
