The Camper Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AA BB CC DD EE FFNight 'neath the northern skies lone black and grim | A |
Naught but the starlight lies 'twixt heaven and him | A |
- | |
Of man no need has he of God no prayer | B |
He and his Deity are brothers there | B |
- | |
Above his bivouac the firs fling down | C |
Through branches gaunt and black their needles brown | C |
- | |
Afar some mountain streams rockbound and fleet | D |
Sing themselves through his dreams in cadence sweet | D |
- | |
The pine trees whispering the heron's cry | E |
The plover's passing wing his lullaby | E |
- | |
And blinking overhead the white stars keep | F |
Watch o'er his hemlock bed his sinless sleep | F |
