Aaron Stark Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACBA DDEFGEWithal a meagre man was Aaron Stark | A |
Cursed and unkempt shrewd shrivelled and morose | B |
A miser was he with a miser's nose | C |
And eyes like little dollars in the dark | A |
His thin pinched mouth was nothing but a mark | A |
And when he spoke there came like sullen blows | C |
Through scattered fangs a few snarled words and close | B |
As if a cur were chary of its bark | A |
- | |
Glad for the murmur of his hard renown | D |
Year after year he shambled through the town | D |
A loveless exile moving with a staff | E |
And oftentimes there crept into his ears | F |
A sound of alien pity touched with tears | G |
And then and only then did Aaron laugh | E |
