Friendship Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDDCWhen we were idlers with the loitering rills | A |
The need of human love we little noted | B |
Our love was nature and the peace that floated | B |
On the white mist and dwelt upon the hills | A |
To sweet accord subdued our wayward wills | A |
One soul was ours one mind one heart devoted | B |
That wisely doting ask'd not why it doted | B |
And ours the unknown joy which knowing kills | A |
But now I find how dear thou wert to me | C |
That man is more than half of nature's treasure | D |
Of that fair beauty which no eye can see | C |
Of that sweet music which no ear can measure | D |
And now the streams may sing for others' pleasure | D |
The hills sleep on in their eternity | C |
