Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEG HAIA JAJA KLKL MAMAThe linnet in the rocky dells | A |
The moor lark in the air | B |
The bee among the heather bells | A |
That hide my lady fair | B |
- | |
The wild deer browse above her breast | C |
The wild birds raise their brood | D |
And they her smiles of love caressed | C |
Have left their solitude | D |
- | |
I ween that when the grave's dark wall | E |
Did first her form retain | F |
They thought their hearts could ne'er recall | E |
The light of joy again | G |
- | |
They thought the tide of grief would flow | H |
Unchecked through future years | A |
But where is all their anguish now | I |
And where are all their tears | A |
- | |
Well let them fight for Honour's breath | J |
Or Pleasure's shade pursue | A |
The Dweller in the land of Death | J |
Is changed and careless too | A |
- | |
And if their eyes should watch and weep | K |
Till sorrow's source were dry | L |
She would not in her tranquil sleep | K |
Return a single sigh | L |
- | |
Blow west wind by the lonely mound | M |
And murmur summer streams | A |
There is no need of other sound | M |
To soothe my Lady's dreams | A |
