The Hunter's Carol. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDE FGFGDEDE| A merry life does the hunter lead | A |
| He wakes with the dawn of day | B |
| He whistles his dog he mounts his steed | C |
| And scuds to he woods away | B |
| The lightsome tramp of the deer he'll mark | D |
| As they troop in herds along | E |
| And his rifle startles the cheerful lark | D |
| As he carols his morning song | E |
| - | |
| The hunter's life is the life for me | F |
| That is the life for a man | G |
| Let others sing of a home on the sea | F |
| But match me the woods if you can | G |
| Then give me a gun I've an eye to mark | D |
| The deer as they bound along | E |
| My steed dog and gun and the cheerful lark | D |
| To carol my morning song | E |
