Summer Evening Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFHII| The frog half fearful jumps across the path | A |
| And little mouse that leaves its hole at eve | B |
| Nimbles with timid dread beneath the swath | C |
| My rustling steps awhile their joys deceive | B |
| Till past and then the cricket sings more strong | D |
| And grasshoppers in merry moods still wear | E |
| The short night weary with their fretting song | D |
| Up from behind the molehill jumps the hare | E |
| Cheat of his chosen bed and from the bank | F |
| The yellowhammer flutters in short fears | G |
| From off its nest hid in the grasses rank | F |
| And drops again when no more noise it hears | H |
| Thus nature's human link and endless thrall | I |
| Proud man still seems the enemy of all | I |
