Here, Where The Vine And Fig Bask Hand In Hand Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACBCBCB| Here where the vine and fig bask hand in hand | A |
| And the hot lizard lies along the wall | B |
| Blinded I shrink where cypress shadows fall | B |
| And gaze upon the far off mountains bland | A |
| Then down the dusty track Lorenzo planned | A |
| Watch the slow oxen oscillating crawl | B |
| Sleek in the sultry glare and feel withal | B |
| Half alien still in a familiar land | A |
| But when from out the stone pine slopes that rise | C |
| In the clear ether black against the blue | B |
| The cuckoo suddenly calls I close mine eyes | C |
| In visionary rapture think of you | B |
| Hear the home music of your Kentish skies | C |
| And dream that I am drenched with English dew | B |
