Farewell To The Glen Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABCA DEDEDESweet stream fed glen why say 'farewell' to thee | A |
Who far'st so well and find'st for ever smooth | B |
The brow of Time where man may read no ruth | C |
Nay do thou rather say 'farewell' to me | A |
Who now fare forth in bitterer fantasy | A |
Than erst was mine where other shade might soothe | B |
By other streams what while in fragrant youth | C |
The bliss of being sad made melancholy | A |
- | |
And yet farewell For better shalt thou fare | D |
When children bathe sweet faces in thy flow | E |
And happy lovers blend sweet shadows there | D |
In hours to come than when an hour ago | E |
Thine echoes had but one man's sighs to bear | D |
And thy trees whispered what he feared to know | E |
