On The Hilltop Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEFDE| There is no inspiration in the view | A |
| From where this acorn drops its thimbles brown | B |
| The landscape stretches like a shaggy frown | B |
| The wrinkled hills hang haggard and harsh of hue | A |
| Above them hollows the heaven's stony blue | A |
| Like a dull thought that haunts some sleepdazed clown | B |
| Plodding his homeward way and whispering down | B |
| The dead leaves dance a sere and shelterless crew | A |
| Let the sick day stagger unto its close | C |
| Morose and mumbling like a hoary crone | D |
| Beneath her fagots huddled fogs that soon | E |
| Shall flare the windy west with ashen glows | F |
| Like some deep dying hearth and let the lone | D |
| Night come at last night and its withered moon | E |
