Autumn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD DEDE FGFG| Now leafy winds are blowing cold | A |
| And South by West the sun goes down | B |
| A quiet huddles up the fold | A |
| In sheltered corners of the brown | B |
| - | |
| Like scattered fire the wild fruit strews | C |
| The ground beneath the blowing tree | D |
| And there the busy squirrel hews | C |
| His deep and secret granary | D |
| - | |
| And when the night comes starry clear | D |
| The lonely quail complains beside | E |
| The glistening waters on the mere | D |
| Where widowed Beauties yet abide | E |
| - | |
| And I too make my own complaint | F |
| Upon a reed I plucked in June | G |
| And love to hear it echoed faint | F |
| Upon another heart in tune | G |
