Sweet Valley, Say Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCBDDB DDEAAEFFESweet valley say where pensive lying | A |
For me our children England sighing | A |
The best of mortals leans his head | B |
Ye fountains dimpled by my sorrow | C |
Ye brooks that my complainings borrow | C |
O lead me to his lonely bed | B |
Or if my lover | D |
Deep woods you cover | D |
Ah whisper where your shadows o'er him spread | B |
- | |
'Tis not the loss of pomp and pleasure | D |
Of empire or of tinsel treasure | D |
That drops this tear that swells this groan | E |
No from a nobler cause proceeding | A |
A heart with love and fondness bleeding | A |
I breathe my sadly pleasing moan | E |
With other anguish | F |
I scorn to languish | F |
For love will feel no sorrows but his own | E |
