Stonepit Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEEFFGHGHThe passing traveller with wonder sees | A |
A deep and ancient stonepit full of trees | A |
So deep and very deep the place has been | B |
The church might stand within and not be seen | C |
The passing stranger oft with wonder stops | D |
And thinks he een could walk upon their tops | D |
And often stoops to see the busy crow | E |
And stands above and sees the eggs below | E |
And while the wild horse gives its head a toss | F |
The squirrel dances up and runs across | F |
The boy that stands and kills the black nosed bee | G |
Dares down as soon as magpies' nests are found | H |
And wonders when he climbs the highest tree | G |
To find it reaches scarce above the ground | H |
