Oh! That We Two Were Maying Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ACAC ADEDOh that we two were Maying | A |
Down the stream of the soft spring breeze | B |
Like children with violets playing | A |
In the shade of the whispering trees | B |
- | |
Oh that we two sat dreaming | A |
On the sward of some sheep trimmed down | C |
Watching the white mist steaming | A |
Over river and mead and town | C |
- | |
Oh that we two lay sleeping | A |
In our nest in the churchyard sod | D |
With our limbs at rest on the quiet earth's breast | E |
And our souls at home with God | D |
