The Railway Train Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGH IJKL KMNO| I like to see it lap the miles | A |
| And lick the valleys up | B |
| And stop to feed itself at tanks | C |
| And then prodigious step | D |
| - | |
| Around a pile of mountains | E |
| And supercilious peer | F |
| In shanties by the sides of roads | G |
| And then a quarry pare | H |
| - | |
| To fit its sides and crawl between | I |
| Complaining all the while | J |
| In horrid hooting stanza | K |
| Then chase itself down the hill | L |
| - | |
| And neigh like Boanerges | K |
| Then punctual as a star | M |
| Stop docile and omnipotent | N |
| At its own stable door | O |
