Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GAHI JKDKThe bindweed roots pierce down | A |
Deeper than men do lie | B |
Laid in their dark shut graves | C |
Their slumbering kinsmen by | B |
- | |
Yet what frail thin spun flowers | D |
She casts into the air | E |
To breathe the sunshine and | F |
To leave her fragrance there | E |

But when the sweet moon comes | G |
Showering her silver down | A |
Half wreath d in faint sleep | H |
They droop where they have blown | I |

So all the grass is set | J |
Beneath her trembling ray | K |
With buds that have been flowers | D |
Brimmed with reflected day | K |
