Bright Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGH IDIDJKJK LLLLEMEM| Where Feathertop frowns thro' the winter scud | A |
| Where Buffalo broods on high | B |
| Dwells she a lass of royal blood | A |
| And a sparkle lights her eye | B |
| The clear clean glint of the sun on snow | C |
| Where the small streams singing down | D |
| Into the golden Ovens flow | C |
| To decorate her town | D |
| - | |
| Wild was she on an olden day | E |
| And a wilful lass forsooth | F |
| When the rough tough diggers came her way | E |
| Ere she emerged from youth | F |
| From her river flats they dredged the gold | G |
| And laid sad waste to these | H |
| While they drove in thousands from their fold | G |
| The thrifty scared Chinese | H |
| - | |
| Waxing in beauty she has grown | I |
| To a maid of wide renown | D |
| For the wild swift days have long since flown | I |
| Now by her tree girt town | D |
| Where her plaited river murmuring flows | J |
| Thro' sylvan scenes and rare | K |
| A maiden clad in beauty goes | J |
| To her hop fields gleaming there | K |
| - | |
| Yet men still scheme to dredge these fields | L |
| And filch their loveliness | L |
| All for the sake of bigger yields | L |
| In gold that count far less | L |
| Than the rare rich harvests won today | E |
| In calm security | M |
| Leaving but ruin and decay | E |
| To sad posterity | M |
