Spring's Messengers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDCDEFGEH| Where slanting banks are always with the sun | A |
| The daisy is in blossom even now | B |
| And where warm patches by the hedges run | A |
| The cottager when coming home from plough | B |
| Brings home a cowslip root in flower to set | C |
| Thus ere the Christmas goes the spring is met | C |
| Setting up little tents about the fields | D |
| In sheltered spots Primroses when they get | C |
| Behind the wood's old roots where ivy shields | D |
| Their crimpled curdled leaves will shine and hide | E |
| Cart ruts and horses' footings scarcely yield | F |
| A slur for boys just crizzled and that's all | G |
| Frost shoots his needles by the small dyke side | E |
| And snow in scarce a feather's seen to | H |
