Candlemas Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAAAB CDDCCCD EFFEEEF| O hearken all ye little weeds | A |
| That lie beneath the snow | B |
| So low dear hearts in poverty so low | B |
| The sun hath risen for royal deeds | A |
| A valiant wind the vanguard leads | A |
| Now quicken ye lest unborn seeds | A |
| Before ye rise and blow | B |
| - | |
| O furry living things adream | C |
| On winter's drowsy breast | D |
| How rest ye there how softly safely rest | D |
| Arise and follow where a gleam | C |
| Of wizard gold unbinds the stream | C |
| And all the woodland windings seem | C |
| With sweet expectance blest | D |
| - | |
| My birds come back the hollow sky | E |
| Is weary for your note | F |
| Sweet throat come back O liquid mellow throat | F |
| Ere May's soft minions hereward fly | E |
| Shame on ye laggards to deny | E |
| The brooding breast the sun bright eye | E |
| The tawny shining coat | F |
