To My Class: On Certain Fruits And Flowers Sent Me In Sickness Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACBCBBB DIf spicy fringed pinks that blush and pale | A |
With passions of perfume if violets blue | B |
That hint of heaven with odor more than hue | B |
If perfect roses each a holy Grail | A |
Wherefrom the blood of beauty doth exhale | A |
Grave raptures round if leaves of green as new | B |
As those fresh chaplets wove in dawn and dew | B |
By Emily when down the Athenian vale | A |
She paced to do observance to the May | C |
Nor dreamed of Arcite nor of Palamon | B |
If fruits that riped in some more riotous play | C |
Of wind and beam that stirs our temperate sun | B |
If these the products be of love and pain | B |
Oft may I suffer and you love again | B |
