Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGFHIJIK LMLMNONLCities and Thrones and Powers | A |
Stand in Time's eye | B |
Almost as long as flowers | A |
Which daily die | B |
But as new buds put forth | C |
To glad new men | D |
Out of the spent and unconsidered Earth | E |
The Cities rise again | D |

This season's Daffodil | F |
She never hears | G |
What change what chance what chill | F |
Cut down last year's | H |
But with bold countenance | I |
And knowledge small | J |
Esteems her seven days' continuance | I |
To be perpetual | K |

So Time that is o'er kind | L |
To all that be | M |
Ordains us e'en as blind | L |
As bold as she | M |
That in our very death | N |
And burial sure | O |
Shadow to shadow well persuaded saith | N |
quot See how our works endure quot | L |
