Upon Roses Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEEFFGG| Under a lawn than skies more clear | A |
| Some ruffled roses nestling were | B |
| And snugging there they seem'd to lie | C |
| As in a flowery nunnery | D |
| They blush'd and look'd more fresh than flowers | E |
| Quicken'd of late by pearly showers | E |
| And all because they were possess'd | F |
| But of the heat of Julia's breast | F |
| Which as a warm and moisten'd spring | G |
| Gave them their ever flourishing | G |
