A Christmas Wish Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEEF AFFGHIIA| I CAN NOT give you happiness | A |
| For wishes long have ceased to bring | B |
| The Fortune which to page and king | B |
| They brought in those good centuries | C |
| When with a quaint and starry wand | D |
| Witches turned poor men's thoughts to gold | E |
| And Cinderella's carriage rolled | E |
| Through moonlight into Fairyland | F |
| - | |
| I may but wish you happiness | A |
| Not Pleasure's dusty fruit to hnd | F |
| But wines of Mirth and Friendship kind | F |
| And Love to make with you a home | G |
| But may Our Lord whose Son has come | H |
| Now heed the wish and make it true | I |
| Even as elves were wont to do | I |
| When wishing could bring happiness | A |
