Gipsies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLMM| The snow falls deep the forest lies alone | A |
| The boy goes hasty for his load of brakes | B |
| Then thinks upon the fire and hurries back | C |
| The gipsy knocks his hands and tucks them up | D |
| And seeks his squalid camp half hid in snow | E |
| Beneath the oak which breaks away the wind | F |
| And bushes close in snow like hovel warm | G |
| There tainted mutton wastes upon the coals | H |
| And the half wasted dog squats close and rubs | I |
| Then feels the heat too strong and goes aloof | J |
| He watches well but none a bit can spare | K |
| And vainly waits the morsel thrown away | L |
| Tis thus they live a picture to the place | M |
| A quiet pilfering unprotected race | M |
