Fair Prime Of Life! Were It Enough To Gild Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBAAAACCAFair Prime of life were it enough to gild | A |
With ready sunbeams every straggling shower | B |
And if an unexpected cloud should lower | B |
Swiftly thereon a rainbow arch to build | A |
For Fancy's errands then from fields half tilled | A |
Gathering green weeds to mix with poppy flower | B |
Thee might thy Minions crown and chant thy power | B |
Unpitied by the wise all censure stilled | A |
Ah show that worthier honours are thy due | A |
Fair Prime of life arouse the deeper heart | A |
Confirm the Spirit glorying to pursue | A |
Some path of steep ascent and lofty aim | C |
And if there be a joy that slights the claim | C |
Of grateful memory bid that joy depart | A |
William Wordsworth
