Winter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEEFGFG| The small wind whispers through the leafless hedge | A |
| Most sharp and chill where the light snowy flakes | B |
| Rest on each twig and spike of wither'd sedge | A |
| Resembling scatter'd feathers vainly breaks | B |
| The pale split sunbeam through the frowning cloud | C |
| On Winter's frowns below from day to day | D |
| Unmelted still he spreads his hoary shroud | C |
| In dithering pride on the pale traveller's way | D |
| Who croodling hastens from the storm behind | E |
| Fast gathering deep and black again to find | E |
| His cottage fire and corner's sheltering bounds | F |
| Where haply such uncomfortable days | G |
| Make musical the wood sap's frizzling sounds | F |
| And hoarse loud bellows puffing up the blaze | G |
