Reluctant Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABABAB CDCDCDCD| Reluctant Summer once a maid | A |
| Full easy of access | B |
| In many a bee frequented shade | A |
| Thou didst thy lover bless | B |
| Divinely unreproved I played | A |
| Then with each liberal tress | B |
| And art thou grown at last afraid | A |
| Of some too close caress | B |
| - | |
| Or deem'st that if thou shouldst abide | C |
| My passion might decay | D |
| Thou leav'st me pining and denied | C |
| Coyly thou say'st me nay | D |
| Ev'n as I woo thee to my side | C |
| Thou importuned to stay | D |
| Like Orpheus' half recovered bride | C |
| Ebb'st from my arms away | D |
