In The Morning Of Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFDGDG HIHJIKIL| In the morning of life when its cares are unknown | A |
| And its pleasures in all their new lustre begin | B |
| When we live in a bright beaming world of our own | A |
| And the light that surrounds us is all from within | B |
| Oh 'tis not believe me in that happy time | C |
| We can love as in hours of less transport we may | D |
| Of our smiles of our hopes 'tis the gay sunny prime | C |
| But affection is truest when these fade away | D |
| - | |
| When we see the first glory of youth pass us by | E |
| Like a leaf on the stream that will never return | F |
| When our cup which had sparkled with pleasure so high | E |
| First tastes of the other the dark flowing urn | F |
| Then then in the time when affection holds sway | D |
| With a depth and a tenderness joy never knew | G |
| Love nursed among pleasures is faithless as they | D |
| But the love born of Sorrow like Sorrow is true | G |
| - | |
| In climes full of sunshine though splendid the flowers | H |
| Their sighs have no freshness their odour no worth | I |
| 'Tis the cloud and the mist of our own Isle of showers | H |
| That call the rich spirit of fragrancy forth | J |
| So it is not 'mid splendour prosperity mirth | I |
| That the depth of Love's generous spirit appears | K |
| To the sunshine of smiles it may first owe its birth | I |
| But the soul of its sweetness is drawn out by tears | L |
