To The Rose Upon The Road Of Time Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGGHHIIJJ KKAA

i Red Rose proud Rose sad Rose of all my daysA
i Come near me while I sing the ancient waysA
i Cuchulain battling with the bitter tideB
i The Druid grey wood nurtured quiet eyedB
i Who cast round Fergus dreams and ruin untoldC
i And thine own sadness where of stars grown oldC
i In dancing silver sandaled on the seaD
i Sing in their high and lonely melodyD
i Come near that no more blinded hy man's fateE
i I find under the boughs of love and hateE
i In all poor foolish things that live a dayF
i Eternal beauty wandering on her wayF
i Come near come near come near Ah leave me stillG
i A little space for the rose breath to fillG
i Lest I no more bear common things that craveH
i The weak worm hiding down in its small caveH
i The field mouse running by me in the grassI
i And heavy mortal hopes that toil and passI
i But seek alone to hear the strange things saidJ
i By God to the bright hearts of those long deadJ
i And learn to chant a tongue men do not knowK
i Come near I would before my time to goK
i Sing of old Eire and the ancient waysA
i Red Rose proud Rose sad Rose of all my daysA
