Black Eyes Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFE ABGBHEIE JKLKMELE| The Blue Eye will do if the courting is through | A |
| And the way of the marriage is sunny | B |
| And it helps in the fun till the sweet life is done | C |
| If the girl brings a mint of good money | B |
| But when aft or before the good parson's front door | D |
| With calm or a storm on the track | E |
| For Love red red hot with the ducats or not | F |
| There is never an eye like the Black | E |
| - | |
| The Hazel is true to you all the way through | A |
| And it burns with a light warm and steady | B |
| Only if it is Fred that she has in her head | G |
| It is burning for no one but Freddie | B |
| But the Black Eye will veer and stake kingdoms to spear | H |
| Whatever it likes on the track | E |
| And as a love lance to its lord in the dance | I |
| There is never an eye like the Black | E |
| - | |
| Here then is good health and without or with wealth | J |
| To the deep raven eye of my charmer | K |
| It's a heavenly spell when it loves very well | L |
| Only when it does not it is warmer | K |
| And it's little I care only so I get there | M |
| Whichever I find on the track | E |
| For Heaven or Hell in its magical spell | L |
| There is never an eye like the Black | E |
