Margaret Love Peacock Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCE FGFG HIHI| Long night succeeds thy little day | A |
| Oh blighted blossom can it be | B |
| That this grey stone and grassy clay | A |
| Have clos'd our anxious care of thee | B |
| - | |
| The half form'd speech of artless thought | C |
| That spoke a mind beyond thy years | D |
| The song the dance by nature taught | C |
| The sunny smiles the transient tears | E |
| - | |
| The symmetry of face and form | F |
| The eye with light and life replete | G |
| The little heart so fondly warm | F |
| The voice so musically sweet | G |
| - | |
| These lost to hope in memory yet | H |
| Around the hearts that lov'd thee cling | I |
| Shadowing with long and vain regret | H |
| The too fair promise of thy spring | I |
