Spring It Is Cheery Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCCBDDBAABAABAABAA BEFB

Spring it is cheeryA
Winter is drearyA
Green leaves hang but the brown must flyB
When he's forsakenC
Wither'd and shakenC
What can an old man do but dieB
Love will not clip himD
Maids will not lip himD
Maud and Marian pass him byB
Youth it is sunnyA
Age has no honeyA
What can an old man do but dieB
June it was jollyA
Oh for its follyA
A dancing leg and a laughing eyeB
Youth may be sillyA
Wisdom is chillyA
What can an old man do but dieB
Friends they are scantyA
Beggars are plentyA
If he has followers I know whyB
Gold's in his clutchesE
Buying him crutchesF
What can an old man do but dieB
