Yattendon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCCC DEDEFGFGAmong the woods and tillage | A |
That fringe the topmost downs | B |
All lonely lies the village | A |
Far off from seas and towns | B |
Yet when her own folk slumbered | C |
I heard within her street | C |
Murmur of men unnumbered | C |
And march of myriad feet | C |
- | |
For all she lies so lonely | D |
Far off from towns and seas | E |
The village holds not only | D |
The roofs beneath her trees | E |
While Life is sweet and tragic | F |
And Death is veiled and dumb | G |
Hither by singer's magic | F |
The pilgrim world must come | G |
