On The Companionship With Nature Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFEFDLet us be much with Nature not as they | A |
That labour without seeing that employ | B |
Her unloved forces blindly without joy | B |
Nor those whose hands and crude delights obey | A |
The old brute passion to hunt down and slay | A |
But rather as children of one common birth | C |
Discerning in each natural fruit of earth | C |
Kinship and bond with this diviner clay | A |
Let us be with her wholly at all hours | D |
With the fond lover's zest who is content | E |
If his ear hears and if his eye but sees | F |
So shall we grow like her in mould and bent | E |
Our bodies stately as her bless d trees | F |
Our thoughts as sweet and sumptuous as her flowers | D |
