The Mound By The Lake Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDCBECBEF| The grass shall never forget this grave | A |
| When homeward footing it in the sun | B |
| After the weary ride by rail | C |
| The stripling soldiers passed her door | D |
| Wounded perchance or wan and pale | C |
| She left her household work undone | B |
| Duly the wayside table spread | E |
| With evergreens shaded to regale | C |
| Each travel spent and grateful one | B |
| So warm her heart childless unwed | E |
| Who like a mother comforted | F |
