The Northern Spring Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF GGHH IIJ KDLL| WHEN the soft breath of Spring goes forth | A |
| Far o'er the mountains of the North | A |
| How soon those wastes of dazzling snow | B |
| With life and bloom and beauty glow | B |
| - | |
| Then bursts the verdure of the plains | C |
| Then break the streams from icy chains | C |
| And the glad rein deer seeks no more | D |
| Amidst deep snows his mossy store | D |
| - | |
| Then the dark pine wood's boughs are seen | E |
| Arrayed in tints of living green | E |
| And roses in their brightest dyes | F |
| By Lapland's founts and streams arise | F |
| - | |
| Thus in a moment from the gloom | G |
| And the cold fetters of the tomb | G |
| Thus shall the blest Redeemer's voice | H |
| Call forth his servants to rejoice | H |
| - | |
| For He whose word is truth hath said | I |
| His power to life shall wake the dead | I |
| And summon those he loves on high | J |
| To 'put on immortality ' | - |
| - | |
| Then all its transient sufferings o'er | K |
| On wings of light the soul shall soar | D |
| Exulting to that blest abode | L |
| Where tears of sorrow never flowed | L |
