Sights Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCE FGHGI saw a singer singing to a crowd | A |
Singing of laughing life and all the while | B |
He sang in tones so shrilly loud | A |
Not one man had a smile | B |
- | |
I saw a fiddler from a broken plain | C |
Playing his weeping fiddle sweet and clear | D |
He sang of Death and Cries and Pain | C |
But no one shed a tear | E |

I saw a whistling soldier still and wan | F |
Firing his rifle from a fearful place | G |
But all the time a dying man | H |
Looked long upon his face | G |
