The Rose Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGGA Rose as fair as ever saw the North | A |
Grew in a little garden all alone | B |
A sweeter flower did Nature ne'er put forth | A |
Nor fairer garden yet was never known | B |
The maidens danced about it morn and noon | C |
And learn egrave d bards of it their ditties made | D |
The nimble fairies by the pale faced moon | C |
Water'd the root and kiss'd her pretty shade | D |
But well a day the gardener careless grew | E |
The maids and fairies both were kept away | F |
And in a drought the caterpillars threw | E |
Themselves upon the bud and every spray | F |
God shield the stock If heaven send no supplies | G |
The fairest blossom of the garden dies | G |
