The Paps Of Dana (the Rocky Road To Dublin) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDDEFFGG HHThe mountains stand and stare around | A |
They are far too proud to speak | B |
Altho' they're rooted in the ground | A |
Up they go peak after peak | B |
Beyond the tallest tree and still | C |
Soaring over house and hill | C |
Until you'd think they'd never stop | D |
Going up top over top | D |
Into the clouds | E |
Still I mark | F |
That a sparrow or a lark | F |
Flying just as high can sing | G |
As if he'd not done anything | G |
- | |
I think the mountains ought to be | H |
Taught a little modesty | H |
