The Hunter-s Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDEAAAA BBDDFFGGAAAA HIJJKKLLAAAA| RISE Sleep no more T is a noble morn | A |
| The dews hang thick on the fringed thorn | A |
| And the frost shrinks back like a beaten hound | B |
| Under the steaming steaming ground | B |
| Behold where the billowy clouds flow by | C |
| And leave us alone in the clear gray sky | C |
| Our horses are ready and steady So ho | D |
| I m gone like a dart from the Tartar s bow | E |
| Hark hark Who calleth the maiden Morn | A |
| From her sleep in the woods and the stubble corn | A |
| The horn the horn | A |
| The merry sweet ring of the hunter s horn | A |
| - | |
| Now thorough the copse where the fox is found | B |
| And over the stream at a mighty bound | B |
| And over the high lands and over the low | D |
| O er furrows o er meadows the hunters go | D |
| Away as a hawk flies full at its prey | F |
| So flieth the hunter away away | F |
| From the burst at the cover till set of sun | G |
| When the red fox dies and the day is done | G |
| Hark hark What sound on the wind is borne | A |
| T is the conquering voice of the hunter s horn | A |
| The horn the horn | A |
| The merry bold voice of the hunter s horn | A |
| - | |
| Sound Sound the horn To the hunter good | H |
| What s the gulley deep or the roaring flood | I |
| Right over he bounds as the wild stag bounds | J |
| At the heels of his swift sure silent hounds | J |
| O what delight can a mortal lack | K |
| When he once is firm on his horse s back | K |
| With his stirrups short and his snaffle strong | L |
| And the blast of the horn for his morning song | L |
| Hark hark Now home and dream till morn | A |
| Of the bold sweet sound of the hunter s horn | A |
| The horn the horn | A |
| O the sound of all sounds is the hunter s horn | A |
