Rain And Wind Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDB EFGFHF IJKJLJ IMNMOM PQFQRS| I hear the hoofs of horses | A |
| Galloping over the hill | B |
| Galloping on and galloping on | C |
| When all the night is shrill | B |
| With wind and rain that beats the pane | D |
| And my soul with awe is still | B |
| - | |
| For every dripping window | E |
| Their headlong rush makes bound | F |
| Galloping up and galloping by | G |
| Then back again and around | F |
| Till the gusty roofs ring with their hoofs | H |
| And the draughty cellars sound | F |
| - | |
| And then I hear black horsemen | I |
| Hallooing in the night | J |
| Hallooing and hallooing | K |
| They ride o'er vale and height | J |
| And the branches snap and the shutters clap | L |
| With the fury of their flight | J |
| - | |
| Then at each door a horseman | I |
| With burly bearded lip | M |
| Hallooing through the keyhole | N |
| Pauses with cloak a drip | M |
| And the door knob shakes and the panel quakes | O |
| 'Neath the anger of his whip | M |
| - | |
| All night I hear their gallop | P |
| And their wild halloo's alarm | Q |
| The tree tops sound and vanes go round | F |
| In forest and on farm | Q |
| But never a hair of a thing is there | R |
| Only the wind and storm | S |
