Sweet-apple Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BAB ABAB| At the end of the bough at the top of the tree | A |
| As fragrant as high and as lovely as thou | B |
| One sweet apple reddens which all men may see | A |
| At the end of the bough | B |
| - | |
| Swinging full to the view tho' the gatherers now | B |
| Pass and evade and o'erlook busily | A |
| Overlook nay but pluck it they cannot tell how | B |
| - | |
| For it swings out of reach as a cloud and as free | A |
| As a star or thy beauty which seems too I vow | B |
| Remote as the sweet rosy apple ah me | A |
| At the end of the bough | B |
