Upon His Kinswoman, Mrs. M. S Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDEEFFHere lies a virgin and as sweet | A |
As e'er was wrapt in winding sheet | A |
Her name if next you would have known | B |
The marble speaks it Mary Stone | B |
Who dying in her blooming years | C |
This stone for name's sake melts to tears | D |
If fragrant virgins you'll but keep | E |
A fast while jets and marbles weep | E |
And praying strew some roses on her | F |
You'll do my niece abundant honour | F |
Robert Herrick
