A Fairy Hunt Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FGFG AHAH FEFC| Who would hear the fairy horn | A |
| Calling all the hounds of Finn | B |
| Must be in a lark's nest born | A |
| When the moon is very thin | B |
| - | |
| I who have the gift can hear | C |
| Hounds and horn and tally ho | D |
| And the tongue of Bran as clear | E |
| As Christmas bells across the snow | D |
| - | |
| And beside my secret place | F |
| Hurries by the fairy fox | G |
| With the moonrise on his face | F |
| Up and down the mossy rocks | G |
| - | |
| Then the music of a horn | A |
| And the flash of scarlet men | H |
| Thick as poppies in the corn | A |
| All across the dusky glen | H |
| - | |
| Oh the mad delight of chase | F |
| Oh the shouting and the cheer | E |
| Many an owl doth leave his place | F |
| In the dusty tree to hear | C |
