Solitude Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBDBDD EFGFFDFDD| To sit on rocks to muse o'er flood and fell | A |
| To slowly trace the forest's shady scene | B |
| Where things that own not man's dominion dwell | A |
| And mortal foot hath ne'er or rarely been | C |
| To climb the trackless mountain all unseen | B |
| With the wild flock that never needs a fold | D |
| Alone o'er steeps and foaming falls to lean | B |
| This is not solitude 'tis but to hold | D |
| Converse with Nature's charms and view her stores unrolled | D |
| - | |
| But midst the crowd the hurry the shock of men | E |
| To hear to see to feel and to possess | F |
| And roam alone the world's tired denizen | G |
| With none who bless us none whom we can bless | F |
| Minions of splendour shrinking from distress | F |
| None that with kindred consciousness endued | D |
| If we were not would seem to smile the less | F |
| Of all the flattered followed sought and sued | D |
| This is to be alone this this is solitude | D |
