Pleasures Of Fancy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFEFGHGHH| A path old tree goes by thee crooking on | A |
| And through this little gate that claps and bangs | B |
| Against thy rifted trunk what steps hath gone | C |
| Though but a lonely way yet mystery hangs | B |
| Oer crowds of pastoral scenes recordless here | D |
| The boy might climb the nest in thy young boughs | E |
| That's slept half an eternity in fear | F |
| The herdsman may have left his startled cows | E |
| For shelter when heaven's thunder voice was near | F |
| Here too the woodman on his wallet laid | G |
| For pillow may have slept an hour away | H |
| And poet pastoral lover of the shade | G |
| Here sat and mused half some long summer day | H |
| While some old shepherd listened to the lay | H |
