The Foggy Dew Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCBB DDBB EEBB| A splendid place is London with golden store | A |
| For them that have the heart and hope and youth galore | A |
| But mournful are its streets to me I tell you true | B |
| For I'm longing sore for Ireland in the foggy dew | B |
| - | |
| The sun he shines all day here so fierce and fine | C |
| With never a wisp of mist at all to dim his shine | C |
| The sun he shines all day here from skies of blue | B |
| He hides his face in Ireland in the foggy dew | B |
| - | |
| The maids go out to milking in the pastures gray | D |
| The sky is green and golden at dawn of the day | D |
| And in the deep drenched meadows the hay lies new | B |
| And the corn is turning yellow in the foggy dew | B |
| - | |
| Mavrone if I might feel now the dew on my face | E |
| And the wind from the mountains in that remembered place | E |
| I'd give the wealth of London if mine it were to do | B |
| And I'd travel home to Ireland and the foggy dew | B |
