Mercutio Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDDBEFDGDHI| Along an avenue of almond trees | A |
| Came three girls chattering of their sweethearts three | B |
| And lo Mercutio with Byronic ease | A |
| Out of his philosophic eye cast all | C |
| A mere flowered twig of thought whereat | D |
| Three hearts fell still as when an air dies out | D |
| And Venus falters lonely o'er the sea | B |
| But when within the further mist of bloom | E |
| His step and form were hid the smooth child Ann | F |
| Said La and what eyes he had and Lucy said | D |
| How sad a gentleman and Katherine | G |
| I wonder now what mischief he was at | D |
| And these three also April hid away | H |
| Leaving the Spring faint with Mercutio | I |
