Adventure Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACACDEEFFDGHD IIFFJKKJLMML DNDLOOLLPQRRSS| Let us leave the hateful town | A |
| With its stale forgotten lies | B |
| Far beneath renewing skies | B |
| Where the piny slope goes down | A |
| All with April love and laughter | C |
| None to leer and none to frown | A |
| We shall pass and follow after | C |
| Shattered lace of waters spun | D |
| On a steep and stony loom | E |
| Down the depths of laurel gloom | E |
| Finding there a world re made | F |
| In the fern embowered shade | F |
| Weaving bright oblivion | D |
| Still from frailest blossom trove | G |
| We shall mix our wilding love | H |
| With the woodland and the sun | D |
| - | |
| Let us loiter hand in hand | I |
| Hearing but the heart's command | I |
| Half our steps by kisses stayed | F |
| Prove the spring enchanted glade | F |
| Breast to breast and limb to limb | J |
| Seize our happiness and bind it | K |
| Lose the pulse of time and find it | K |
| Free as vagrant seraphim | J |
| Ever leave regret and rue | L |
| To the dutiful and jealous | M |
| Fools that are not near to tell us | M |
| All the things we should not do | L |
| - | |
| Though the bedded ferns be broken | D |
| And dishevelled blossoms lie | N |
| On the rumpled moss for token | D |
| Of the day's mad errantry | L |
| Still the tacit pines will keep | O |
| Darkly in their sighing sleep | O |
| All the sweet and perilous story | L |
| And the oaks and willows hoary | L |
| For unheeding ears will tell | P |
| Only things ineffable | Q |
| And the later eyes that look | R |
| On the pool delaying brook | R |
| Shall not see within its glass | S |
| Two that came to kiss and pass | S |
