Bacchus Marsh Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCD AEAEEFEEF EEEEEAEEA AGAGAEAAE

Here she bides a buxom ladyA
Blest by peace and great contentB
Dwelling by her byways shadyA
Where the elm trees boughs are bentB
Shutting out the world's wild clamorC
Lending to her streets a glamourC
Gracious and beneficentD
-
-
Fortune came to her full easyA
Asking little of man's toilE
So she prospered in those breezyA
Days when wealth sprang from the soilE
And kind earth munificentlyE
As the placid seasons passedF
For man's fortune proffered gentlyE
Rich and gracious gifts in plentyE
Drawn from out her storehouse vastF
-
-
Portly dame untuned to troubleE
Destined through the years to beE
While the ills of earth redoubleE
Sheltered in tranquilityE
Asking neither fame nor gloryE
And with quiet dilligenceA
Tending earth that tells the storyE
Of an age long gone and hoaryE
And the young world's turbulenceA
-
-
Brown hills broody in the diatnceA
Fecund fields that won their worthG
Out of nature's mad insistenceA
To remould her tortured earthG
These have left their age old tracesA
In the glacier's graven trailE
Thro' the wondrous green oasisA
Where the pleasant river racesA
To the sea from this calm valeE
