Apostrophe: An apostrophe is a device used to call somebody from afar. The poet has used this device in the twelfth line where it is stated as “Who hath not seen thee oft amid thy store.” In this line, the poet directly addresses the imaginary character “autumn”.
This is the rhyme scheme in this poem: ABBAABBACDCDCD.
What this means is that each letter which is repeated rhymes with each other. So A refers to lines 1, 4, 5, and 8, which all rhyme. B refers to lines 2, 3, 6, and 7, which all rhyme. C refers to lines 9, 11, and 13, which all rhyme. D refers to lines 10, 12, and 14, which all rhyme.
