While Summer Suns O'er The Gay Prospect Play'd Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEEDFFGHGHWhile summer suns o'er the gay prospect play'd | A |
Through Surrey's verdant scenes where Epsom spread | B |
'Mid intermingling elms her flowery meads | C |
And Hascombe's hill in towering groves array'd | A |
Rear'd its romantic steep with mind serene | D |
I journey'd blithe Full pensive I return'd | E |
For now my breast with hopeless passion burn'd | E |
Wet with hoar mists appear'd the gaudy scene | D |
Which late in careless indolence I pass'd | F |
And Autumn all around those hues had cast | F |
Where past delight my recent grief might trace | G |
Sad change that Nature a congenial gloom | H |
Should wear when most my cheerless mood to chase | G |
I wish'd her green attire and wonted bloom | H |
