The Background And The Figure - Lover's Ditty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EBEB| I think of the slope where the rabbits fed | A |
| Of the periwinks' rockwork lair | B |
| Of the fuchsias ringing their bells of red | A |
| And the something else seen there | B |
| - | |
| Between the blooms where the sod basked bright | C |
| By the bobbing fuchsia trees | D |
| Was another and yet more eyesome sight | C |
| The sight that richened these | D |
| - | |
| I shall seek those beauties in the spring | E |
| When the days are fit and fair | B |
| But only as foils to the one more thing | E |
| That also will flower there | B |
