All That's Past Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFEGHIHJKHL MNLNOPNP

Very old are the woodsA
And the buds that breakB
Out of the brier's boughsC
When March winds wakeB
So old with their beauty areD
Oh no man knowsE
Through what wild centuriesF
Roves back the roseE
Very old are the brooksG
And the rills that riseH
Where snow sleeps cold beneathI
The azure skiesH
Sing such a historyJ
Of come and goneK
Their every drop is as wiseH
As SolomonL
-
Very old are we menM
Our dreams are talesN
Told in dim EdenL
By Eve's nightingalesN
We wake and whisper awhileO
But the day gone byP
Silence and sleep like fieldsN
Of amaranth lieP
