Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEDFFGGHBIA| As I lay in the early sun | A |
| Stretched in the grass I thought upon | B |
| My true love my dear love | C |
| Who has my heart for ever | D |
| Who is my happiness when we meet | E |
| My sorrow when we sever | D |
| She is all fire when I do burn | F |
| Gentle when I moody turn | F |
| Brave when I am sad and heavy | G |
| And all laughter when I am merry | G |
| And so I lay and dreamed and dreamed | H |
| And so the day wheeled on | B |
| While all the birds with thoughts like mine | I |
| Were singing to the sun | A |
