Song #2 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFGHGHOne gloomy eve I roamed about | A |
Neath Oxey's hazel bowers | B |
While timid hares were darting out | A |
To crop the dewy flowers | B |
And soothing was the scene to me | C |
Right pleased was my soul | D |
My breast was calm as summer's sea | C |
When waves forget to roll | D |
- | |
But short was even's placid smile | E |
My startled soul to charm | F |
When Nelly lightly skipt the stile | E |
With milk pail on her arm | F |
One careless look on me she flung | G |
As bright as parting day | H |
And like a hawk from covert sprung | G |
It pounced my peace away | H |
