Phoebe Of The Scottish Glen Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCACA DEDEEAEA FEEEEAEA| Agen I'll take my idle pen | A |
| And sing my bonny mountain maid | B |
| Sweet Phoebe of the Scottish glen | A |
| Nor of her censure feel afraid | B |
| I'll charm her ear with beauty's praise | C |
| And please her eye with songs agen | A |
| The ballads of our early days | C |
| To Phoebe of the Scottish glen | A |
| - | |
| There never was a fairer thing | D |
| All Scotland's glens and mountains through | E |
| The siller gowans of the Spring | D |
| Besprent with pearls of mountain dew | E |
| The maiden blush upon the brere | E |
| Far distant from the haunts of men | A |
| Are nothing half so sweet or dear | E |
| As Phoebe of the Scottish glen | A |
| - | |
| How handsome is her naked foot | F |
| Moist with the pearls of Summer dew | E |
| The siller daisy's nothing to 't | E |
| Nor hawthorn flowers so white to view | E |
| She's sweeter than the blooming brere | E |
| That blossoms far away from men | A |
| No flower in Scotland's half so dear | E |
| As Phoebe of the Scottish glen | A |
