Down By The Salley Gardens Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD

Down by the salley gardens my love and I did meetA
She passed the salley gardens with little snow white feetA
She bid me take love easy as the leaves grow on the treeB
But I being young and foolish with her would not agreeB
-
In a field by the river my love and I did standC
And on my leaning shoulder she laid her snow white handC
She bid me take life easy as the grass grows on the weirsD
But I was young and foolish and now am full of tearsD
