My Lands, Not Thine Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDA BBDE BBDCBBMy lands not thine we look upon | A |
Friend Croesus hill and vale and lawn | B |
Mine every woodland madrigal | C |
And mine thy singing waterfall | D |
That vaguely hints of Helicon | A |
- | |
Mark how thine upland slopes have drawn | B |
A golden glory from the dawn | B |
Fool's gold thy dullness proves them all | D |
My lands not thine | E |
- | |
For when all title deeds are gone | B |
Still still will satyr nymph and faun | B |
Through brake and covert pipe and call | D |
In dances bold and bacchanal | C |
For them for me you hold in pawn | B |
My lands not thine | B |
