Sabbath Walks Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCCDCDCDUpon the sabbath sweet it is to walk | A |
'Neath wood side shelter of oak's spreading tree | B |
Or by a hedge row track or padded balk | A |
Or stretch 'neath willows on the meadow lea | B |
List'ning delighted hum of passing bee | B |
And curious pausing on the blossom's head | C |
And mark the spider at his labour free | B |
Spinning from bent to bent his silken thread | C |
And lab'ring ants by careful nature led | C |
To make the most of summer's plenteous stay | D |
And lady cow beneath its leafy shed | C |
Call'd when I mix'd with children clock a clay | D |
Pruning its red wings on its pleasing bed | C |
Glad like myself to shun the heat of day | D |
