Native Scenes. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBBBBCBCBDDO Native scenes nought to my heart clings nearer | A |
Than you ye Edens of my youthful hours | B |
Nought in this world warms my affections dearer | A |
Than you ye plains of white and yellow flowers | B |
Ye hawthorn hedge rows and ye woodbine bowers | B |
Where youth has rov'd and still where manhood roves | B |
The pasture pathway 'neath the willow groves | B |
Ah as my eye looks o'er those lovely scenes | B |
All the delights of former life beholding | C |
Spite of the pain the care that intervenes | B |
When lov'd remembrance is her bliss unfolding | C |
Picking her childish posies on your greens | B |
My soul can pause o'er its distress awhile | D |
And Sorrow's cheek find leisure for a smile | D |
