The Spring River Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHHeat and cold dusk and dawn have crowded one upon the other | A |
Suddenly I find it is two years since I came to Chung chou | B |
Through my closed doors I hear nothing but the morning and evening drum | C |
From my upper windows all I see is the ships that come and go | D |
In vain the orioles tempt me with their song to stray beneath the flowering trees | E |
In vain the grasses lure me by their colour to sit beside the pond | F |
There is one thing and one alone I never tire of watching | G |
The spring river as it trickles over the stones and babbles past the rocks | H |
