Hackelnberg Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDDDC EEEFGGGGF HHHDIIIID| When down the Hartz the echoes swarm | A |
| He rides beneath the sounding storm | A |
| With mad halloo and wild alarm | B |
| Of hound and horn a wonder | C |
| With his hunter black as night | D |
| Ban dogs fleet and fast as light | D |
| And a stag as silver white | D |
| Drives before like mist in flight | D |
| Glimmering 'neath the bursten thunder | C |
| - | |
| The were wolf shuns his ruinous track | E |
| Long howling hid in braken black | E |
| Around the forests reel and crack | E |
| And mountain torrents tumble | F |
| And the spirits of the air | G |
| Whistling whirl with scattered hair | G |
| Teeth that flash and eyes that glare | G |
| 'Round him as he chases there | G |
| With a noise of rains that rumble | F |
| - | |
| From thick Thuringian thickets growl | H |
| Fierce fearful monsters black and foul | H |
| And close before him a stritch owl | H |
| Wails like a ghost unquiet | D |
| Then the clouds aside are driven | I |
| And the moonlight stormy striven | I |
| Falls around the castle riven | I |
| Of the Dumburg and the heaven | I |
| Maddens then with blacker riot | D |
