Sonnet Xv. On The Grasshopper And Cricket Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBCDEFDEF| The poetry of earth is never dead | A |
| When all the birds are faint with the hot sun | B |
| And hide in cooling trees a voice will run | B |
| From hedge to hedge about the new mown mead | C |
| That is the Grasshopper's he takes the lead | A |
| In summer luxury he has never done | B |
| With his delights for when tired out with fun | B |
| He rests at ease beneath some pleasant weed | C |
| The poetry of earth is ceasing never | D |
| On a lone winter evening when the frost | E |
| Has wrought a silence from the stove there shrills | F |
| The Cricket's song in warmth increasing ever | D |
| And seems to one in drowsiness half lost | E |
| The Grasshopper's among some grassy hills | F |
John Keats
