To Mrs. Will. H. Low. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIAJKLFMNOPQREven in the bluest noonday of July | A |
There could not run the smallest breath of wind | B |
But all the quarter sounded like a wood | C |
And in the chequered silence and above | D |
The hum of city cabs that sought the Bois | E |
Suburban ashes shivered into song | F |
A patter and a chatter and a chirp | G |
And a long dying hiss it was as though | H |
Starched old brocaded dames through all the house | I |
Had trailed a strident skirt or her whole sky | A |
Even in a wink had over brimmed in rain | J |
Hark in these shady parlours how it talks | K |
Of the near autumn how the smitten ash | L |
Trembles and augurs floods O not too long | F |
In these inconstant latitudes delay | M |
O not too late from the unbeloved north | N |
Trim your escape For soon shall this low roof | O |
Resound indeed with rain soon shall your eyes | P |
Search the foul garden search the darkened rooms | Q |
Nor find one jewel but the blazing log | R |
