The Swallows Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABB CDCDE| I asked the first stray swallow of the spring | A |
| Where hast thou been through all the winter drear | B |
| Beneath what distant skies did'st fold thy wing | A |
| Since thou wast with us here | B |
| When Autumn's withered leaves foretold the passing year | B |
| - | |
| And it replied Whither has Fancy led | C |
| The plumy thoughts that circle through thy brain | D |
| Like birds about some mountain's lofty head | C |
| Singing a sweet refrain | D |
| There without bound I've been and must return again | E |
