Foreword. To Idyllic Monologues Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCCBA DEFGED EHIIHE

And one perchance will read and sighA
What aimless songs Why will he singB
Of nature that drags out her woeC
Through wind and rain and sun and snowC
From miserable spring to springB
Then put me byA
-
And one perhaps will read and sayD
Why write of things across the seaE
Of men and women far and nearF
When we of things at home would hearG
Well who would call this poetryE
Then toss awayD
-
A hopeless task have we meseemsE
At this late day whom fate hath madeH
Sad bankrupt heirs of song who filledI
With kindred yearnings try to buildI
A tower like theirs that will not fadeH
Out of our dreamsE
