Serenade Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCACDEFDF| THOU moon like a white Christus hanging | A |
| At the sky's cross roads I'll court thee not | B |
| Though travellers bend up and seek thy grace | C |
| Let them go truckle with their gifts and singing | A |
| I'll ask no favours of thy cocker face | C |
| Moonlight's a viand sucked by the world's lovers | D |
| Captains and peasants all that are young and have luck | E |
| They take the moon Nobody asked them to | F |
| Let the musicians lout to thee for favours | D |
| Personally I have other things to do | F |
