To My Cottage. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCDEDEFG| Thou lowly cot where first my breath I drew | A |
| Past joys endear thee childhood's past delight | B |
| Where each young summer's pictur'd on my view | A |
| And dearer still the happy winter night | B |
| When the storm pelted down with all his might | B |
| And roar'd and bellow'd in the chimney top | C |
| And patter'd vehement 'gainst the window light | B |
| And on the threshold fell the quick eaves drop | C |
| How blest I've listen'd on my corner stool | D |
| Heard the storm rage and hugg'd my happy spot | E |
| While the fond parent wound her whirring spool | D |
| And spar'd a sigh for the poor wanderer's lot | E |
| In thee sweet hut this happiness was prov'd | F |
| And thee endear and make thee doubly lov'd | G |
