The Valley Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCD EFGH IJKL MNDO PQRD| Between the beechen hill and the green down | A |
| The valley pastures sink | B |
| And the green river runs through their warm green | C |
| Northward into the sea | D |
| - | |
| Dark is the beechen hill these winter days | E |
| The trees swallow the light | F |
| And make an evening there when morning shines | G |
| And the down heaves to the south | H |
| - | |
| Only when the sun's low a fire creeps through | I |
| The dark of the beechen hill | J |
| While the green down misty from head to foot | K |
| Grows huge and dim with sleep | L |
| - | |
| Then in the valley by the yet shining river | M |
| Under the noisy elms | N |
| I know how like twin shadows over me | D |
| Rising high east and west | O |
| - | |
| Are Love's dark hills quiet unchanging vast | P |
| Sleeping beneath the stars | Q |
| While I with those stars in my bosom shining | R |
| Move northward to the sea | D |
