The Peddler Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CADE FGFGHBHB

Lend me a little while the keyA
That locks your heavy heart and I'll give you backB
Rarer than books and ribbons and beads bright to seeA
This little Key of Dreams out of my packB
-
The road the road beyond men's bolted doorsC
There shall I walk and you go free of meA
For yours lies North across the moorsD
And mine lies South To what seasE
-
How if we stopped and let our solemn selves go byF
While my gay ghost caught and kissed yours as ghosts don't doG
And by the wayside this forgotten you and IF
Sat and were twenty twoG
Give me the key that locks your tired eyesH
And I will lend you this one from my packB
Brighter than colored beads and painted books that make men wiseH
Take it No give it backB
