Cities And Thrones And Powers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDED FGFHIJIK LMLMNONL

Cities and Thrones and PowersA
Stand in Time's eyeB
Almost as long as flowersA
Which daily dieB
But as new buds put forthC
To glad new menD
Out of the spent and unconsidered EarthE
The Cities rise againD
-
This season's DaffodilF
She never hearsG
What change what chance what chillF
Cut down last year'sH
But with bold countenanceI
And knowledge smallJ
Esteems her seven days' continuanceI
To be perpetualK
-
So Time that is o'er kindL
To all that beM
Ordains us e'en as blindL
As bold as sheM
That in our very deathN
And burial sureO
Shadow to shadow well persuaded saithN
quot See how our works endure quotL
