Twice A Week The Winter Thorough Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF

Twice a week the winter thoroughA
Here stood I to keep the goalB
Football then was fighting sorrowA
For the young man's soulB
-
Now in Maytime to the wicketC
Out I march with bat and padD
See the son of grief at cricketC
Trying to be gladD
-
Try I will no harm in tryingE
Wonder 'tis how little mirthF
Keeps the bones of man from lyingE
On the bed of earthF

A. E. Housman
