Willow-pipes Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCDEFFGGHH| So in the shadow by the nimble flood | A |
| He made her whistles of the willow wood | B |
| Flutes of one note with mellow slender tone | C |
| A robin piping in the dusk alone | C |
| Lively the pleasure was the wand to bruise | D |
| And notch the light rod for its lyric use | E |
| Until the stem gave up its tender sheath | F |
| And showed the white and glistening wood beneath | F |
| And when the ground was covered with light chips | G |
| Grey leaves and green and twigs and tender slips | G |
| They placed the well made whistles in a row | H |
| And left them for the careless wind to blow | H |
