Patty Of The Vale Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAB CCCB DDDE FFF CCCG HH| 'A weedling child on lonely lea | A |
| My evening rambles chanced to see | A |
| And much the weedling tempted me | A |
| To crop its tender flower | B |
| - | |
| Exposed to wind and heavy rain | C |
| It's head bow'd lowly on the plain | C |
| Hand silently it seem'd in pain | C |
| Of life's endanger'd hour | B |
| - | |
| And and wilt thou bid my bloom decay | D |
| And crop my flower and me betray | D |
| And cast my injured sweets away | D |
| Its silence seemly sigh'd | E |
| - | |
| 'A moment's idol of thy mind | F |
| And is a stranger so unkind | F |
| to leave the shameful root behind | F |
| Bereft of all its pride ' | - |
| - | |
| And so it seemly did complain | C |
| And beating fell the heavy rain | C |
| And low it droop'd upon the plain | C |
| To fate resign'd to fall | G |
| - | |
| My heart did melt at its decline | H |
| And ' Come ' said I ' thou gem divine | H |
| My fate shall stand the storm with thine ' | - |
| So took the root and all ' | - |
