The Lad Of Bebside Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAA BBAA CCAA DDAA EEAA| My heart is away with the lad of Bebside | A |
| And never can I to another be tied | A |
| Not not to be titled a lord's wedded bride | A |
| Could Jinny abandon the lad of Bebside | A |
| - | |
| He dances so clever he whistles so fine | B |
| He's flattered and wooed from the Blyth to the Tyne | B |
| Yet spite of the proffers he meets far and wide | A |
| I'm alone the beloved of the lad of Bedside | A |
| - | |
| He entered our door on the eve of the Fair | C |
| And cracked with our folk in a manner so rare | C |
| Next morning right early with spleen I was eyed | A |
| To link to the Fair with the lad of Bebside | A |
| - | |
| Last night at the dancing 'mid scores of fine queans | D |
| The eldest among them just out of her teens | D |
| He chose me and truly with pleasure and pride | A |
| I footed the jig with the lad of Bebside | A |
| - | |
| To wed me he's promised and who can believe | E |
| A laddie like him can a lassie deceive | E |
| The moon's on the wane ere another be spied | A |
| I'll lie in the arms of the lad of Bebside | A |
