Spring Bereaved Iii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABACDADAAAAlexis here she stay'd among these pines | A |
Sweet hermitress she did alone repair | B |
Here did she spread the treasure of her hair | B |
More rich than that brought from the Colchian mines | A |
She set her by these musk d eglantines | A |
The happy place the print seems yet to bear | B |
Her voice did sweeten here thy sugar'd lines | A |
To which winds trees beasts birds did lend their ear | C |
Me here she first perceived and here a morn | D |
Of bright carnations did o'erspread her face | A |
Here did she sigh here first my hopes were born | D |
And I first got a pledge of promised grace | A |
But ah what served it to be happy so | A |
Sith pass d pleasures double but new woe | A |
