The Witch Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEECD| She gropes and hobbies where the dropsied rocks | A |
| Are hairy with the lichens and the twist | B |
| Of knotted wolf's bane mumbling in the mist | B |
| Hawk nosed and wrinkle eyed with scrawny locks | A |
| At her bent back the sick faced moonlight mocks | A |
| Like some lewd evil whom the Fiend hath kissed | B |
| Thrice at her feet the slipping serpent hissed | B |
| And thrice the owl called to the forest fox | A |
| What sabboth brew dost now intend What root | C |
| Dost seek for seal for what satanic spell | D |
| Of incantations and demoniac fire | E |
| From thy rude hut hill huddled in the brier | E |
| What dark familiar points thy sure pursuit | C |
| With burning eyes gaunt with the glow of Hell | D |
