The Brook Rhine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADBAEFEGGFSMALL current of the wilds afar from men | A |
Changing and sudden as a baby's mood | B |
Now a green babbling rivulet in the wood | C |
Now loitering broad and shallow through the glen | A |
Or threading 'mid the naked shoals and then | A |
Brattling against the stones half mist half flood | D |
Between the mountains where the storm clouds brood | B |
And each change but to wake or sleep again | A |
Pass on young stream the world has need of thee | E |
Far hence a mighty river on its breast | F |
Bears the deep laden vessels to the sea | E |
Far hence wide waters feed the vines and corn | G |
Pass on small stream to so great purpose born | G |
On to the distant toil the distant rest | F |
