Frogs At Night Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABCD B C BEFEFEC C C C| I heard the toads and frogs last night | A |
| When snug in bed and all was still | B |
| I lay and listened there until | B |
| It seemed a church where one with might | A |
| Was preaching high and very shrill | B |
| 'The will of God | C |
| The will of God ' | D |
| - | |
| To which a voice below the hill | B |
| Basso profundo'd deep 'The will ' | - |
| 'The will of God | C |
| The will of God ' | - |
| 'The will The will ' | - |
| - | |
| They croaked and chorused hoarse or shrill | B |
| It made me sleepy sleepier | E |
| Than any sermon ever heard | F |
| And so I turned upon my ear | E |
| And went to sleep and never stirred | F |
| But in my sleep I seemed to hear | E |
| 'The word of God | C |
| The word of God ' | - |
| - | |
| Chanted and quavered chirped and purred | C |
| To which one deep voice croaked 'The word ' | - |
| 'The word of God | C |
| The word of God ' | - |
| 'The word The word ' | - |
| And I slept on and never stirred | C |
