Along The Field As We Came By Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEE FFGGHHIIJJAlong the field as we came by | A |
A year ago my love and I | A |
The aspen over stile and stone | B |
Was talking to itself alone | B |
'Oh who are these that kiss and pass | C |
A country lover and his lass | C |
Two lovers looking to be wed | D |
And time shall put them both to bed | D |
But she shall lie with earth above | E |
And he beside another love | E |
- | |
And sure enough beneath the tree | F |
There walks another love with me | F |
And overhead the aspen heaves | G |
Its rainy sounding silver leaves | G |
And I spell nothing in their stir | H |
But now perhaps they speak to her | H |
And plain for her to understand | I |
They talk about a time at hand | I |
When I shall sleep with clover clad | J |
And she beside another lad | J |
