O, Vrba, Happy Village, My Old Hme Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDEC FGF HIH

O Vrba happy village my old homeA
My father's cottage stands there to this dayB
The lure of learning beckoned me awayB
Its serpent wiles enticing me to roamA
-
Else had I never known that heart's joyC
Sweet promise could become a poisoned draughtD
Not known myself of self belief bereftE
Tossed in internal tempests like a toyC
-
A dowry riches never could surpassF
A faithful heart a hand that's made for workG
Would have come with a chosen country lassF
-
Serenely onward would have sailed my barkH
My house from fire my corn from hailstorm lossI
Safeguarded by my neighbour near Sain MarkH
