Elegiac I. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEDBDFDB| From thy far sources 'mid mountains airily climbing | A |
| Pass to the rich lowland thou busy sunny river | B |
| Murmuring once dimpling pellucid limpid abundant | C |
| Deepening now widening swelling a lordly river | B |
| Through woodlands steering with branches waving above thee | D |
| Through the meadows sinuous wandering irriguous | E |
| Towns hamlets leaving towns by thee bridges across thee | D |
| Pass to palace garden pass to cities populous | E |
| Murmuring once dimpling mid woodlands wandering idly | D |
| Now with mighty vessels loaded a mighty river | B |
| Pass to the great waters though tides may seem to resist thee | D |
| Tides to resist seeming quickly will lend thee passage | F |
| Pass to the dark waters that roaring wait to receive thee | D |
| Pass them thou wilt not thou busy sunny river | B |
