Rhyme Scheme: ABBC DEED FGG HFHBetween the mountain meadow and the pines | A |
In one still wave the flowered azaleas clomb | B |
A billow laced and crested with pale foam | B |
Unscattered by the balsam bearing winds | C |
- | |
High rearing on their miry haunches where | D |
Some grassy bottomed tarn had sunk and died | E |
A black hog and his mate stood side by side | E |
Sniffing those elfin blossoms cool and fair | D |

Straying in new found freedom hungry still | F |
They had gone forth beneath the immaculate sky | G |
Through fir set fells beyond their broken sty | G |
- | |
And lofty valleys wild and aspen grown | H |
As those who haply seek for husks and swill | F |
Amid the flowers upon Parnassus blown | H |
