Summer Tints Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCDDCDECEC| How sweet I've wander'd bosom deep in grain | A |
| When Summer's mellowing pencil sweeps his shade | B |
| Of ripening tinges o'er the checquer'd plain | A |
| Light tawny oat lands with a yellow blade | B |
| And bearded corn like armies on parade | B |
| Beans lightly scorch'd that still preserve their green | C |
| And nodding lands of wheat in bleachy brown | D |
| And streaking banks where many a maid and clown | D |
| Contrast a sweetness to the rural scene | C |
| Forming the little haycocks up and down | D |
| While o'er the face of nature softly swept | E |
| The ling'ring wind mixing the brown and green | C |
| So sweet that shepherds from their bowers have crept | E |
| And stood delighted musing o'er the scene | C |
