A Fairy Tale Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE ADCD FGFG HIHI| There stands by the wood path shaded | A |
| A meek little beggar maid | B |
| Close under her mantle faded | C |
| She is hidden like one afraid | B |
| - | |
| Yet if you but lifted lightly | D |
| That mantle of russet brown | E |
| She would spring up slender and sightly | D |
| In a smoke blue silken gown | E |
| - | |
| For she is a princess fated | A |
| Disguised in the wood to dwell | D |
| And all her life long has awaited | C |
| The touch that should break the spell | D |
| - | |
| And the Oak that has cast around her | F |
| His root like a wrinkled arm | G |
| Is the wild old wizard that bound her | F |
| Fast with his cruel charm | G |
| - | |
| Is the princess worth your knowing | H |
| Then haste for the spring is brief | I |
| And find the Hepatica growing | H |
| Hid under a last year's leaf | I |
