Song Xiii. - Winter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDC CBCB CECE| No more ye warbling birds rejoice | A |
| Of all that cheer'd the plain | B |
| Echo alone preserves her voice | A |
| And she repeats my pain | B |
| - | |
| Where'er my lovesick limbs I lay | C |
| To shun the rushing wind | D |
| Its busy murmurs seem to say | C |
| 'She never will be kind ' | - |
| - | |
| The Naiads o'er their frozen urns | C |
| In icy chains repine | B |
| And each in sullen silence mourns | C |
| Her freedom lost like mine | B |
| - | |
| Soon will the sun's returning rays | C |
| The cheerless frost control | E |
| When will relenting Delia chase | C |
| The winter of my soul | E |
