Lines On A Fountain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFWe love cold water as it flows from the fountain | A |
Which nature hath brewed alone in the mountain | A |
In the wild woods and in the rocky dell | B |
Where man hath not been but the deer loves to dwell | B |
And away across the sea in far distant lands | C |
In Asia's gloomy jungles and Africa's drifting sands | C |
Where to the thirsty traveller a charming spot of green | D |
Is by far the rarest gem his eyes have ever seen | D |
And when he hath quenched his thirst at the cooling spring | E |
With many grateful songs he makes the air to ring | E |
For many nights he dreams of this scene of bliss | F |
And when he thinks of Heaven it is of such as this | F |
