October Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CCCCCCLook how those steep woods on the mountain's face | A |
Burn burn against the sunset now the cold | B |
Invades our very noon the year's grown old | B |
Mornings are dark and evenings come apace | A |
The vines below have lost their purple grace | A |
And in Forreze the white wrack backward rolled | B |
Hangs to the hills tempestuous fold on fold | B |
And moaning gusts make desolate all the place | A |
- | |
Mine host the month at thy good hostelry | C |
Tired limbs I'll stretch and steaming beast I'll tether | C |
Pile on great logs with Gascon hand and free | C |
And pour the Gascon stuff that laughs at weather | C |
Swell your tough lungs north wind no whit care we | C |
Singing old songs and drinking wine together | C |
