The Bottle Tree Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBACCDBDB BDBDDBDDDBDB| A bottle tree bloometh in Winkyway land | A |
| Heigh ho for a bottle I say | B |
| A snug little berth in that ship I demand | A |
| That rocketh the Bottle Tree babies away | B |
| Where the Bottle Tree bloometh by night and by day | B |
| And reacheth its fruit to each wee dimpled hand | A |
| You take of that fruit as much as you list | C |
| For colic's a nuisance that doesn't exist | C |
| So cuddle me and cuddle me fast | D |
| And cuddle me snug in my cradle away | B |
| For I hunger and thirst for that precious repast | D |
| Heigh ho for a bottle I say | B |

| The Bottle Tree bloometh by night and by day | B |
| Heigh ho for Winkyway land | D |
| And Bottle Tree fruit as I've heard people say | B |
| Makes bellies of Bottle Tree babies expand | D |
| And that is a trick I would fain understand | D |
| Heigh ho for a bottle to day | B |
| And heigh ho for a bottle to night | D |
| A bottle of milk that is creamy and white | D |
| So cuddle me close and cuddle me fast | D |
| And cuddle me snug in my cradle away | B |
| For I hunger and thirst for that precious repast | D |
| Heigh ho for a bottle I say | B |
