In A Eweleaze Near Weatherbury Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD AEAEFAFA GFGFCBCB| THE years have gathered grayly | A |
| Since I danced upon this leaze | B |
| With one who kindled gayly | A |
| Love's fitful ecstasies | B |
| But despite the term as teacher | C |
| I remain what I was then | D |
| In each essential feature | C |
| Of the fantasies of men | D |
| - | |
| Yet I note the little chisel | A |
| Of ever napping Time | E |
| Defacing ghast and grizzel | A |
| The blazon of my prime | E |
| When at night he thinks me sleeping | F |
| I feel him boring sly | A |
| Within my bones and heaping | F |
| Quaintest pains for by and by | A |
| - | |
| Still I'd go the world with Beauty | G |
| I would laugh with her and sing | F |
| I would shun divinest duty | G |
| To resume her worshipping | F |
| But she'd scorn my brave endeavor | C |
| She would not balm the breeze | B |
| By murmuring Thine for ever | C |
| As she did upon this leaze | B |
