The Moors Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFCGCG| NOT in rich glebe and ripe green garden only | A |
| Does Summer weave her sweet resistless spells | B |
| But in high hills and moorlands waste and lonely | A |
| The vast enchantment of her presence dwells | B |
| Wide sky and sky wide waste of thyme and heather | C |
| Perpetual sleepy hum of golden bees | D |
| If you and I were only there together | C |
| Free from the weight of all your garden's trees | D |

| The north is mine though bred by elm and meadow | E |
| Pines torrents rocks and moors my heart loves best | F |
| I love the plover's wail the cleft hill's shadow | E |
| The sun browned grass that is the skylark's nest | F |
| Ah yes you too I love dear wistful pleader | C |
| You most I love dear southern rose half blown | G |
| And rather lounge with you beneath your cedar | C |
| Than greet the moor's wide heaven on earth alone | G |
