Hayeswater Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEE FGFGHHBB| A region desolate and wild | A |
| Black chafing water and afloat | B |
| And lonely as a truant child | A |
| In a waste wood a single boat | B |
| No mast no sails are set thereon | C |
| It moves but never moveth on | D |
| And welters like a human thing | E |
| Amid the wild waves weltering | E |
| - | |
| Behind a buried vale doth sleep | F |
| Far down the torrent cleaves its way | G |
| In front the dumb rock rises steep | F |
| A fretted wall of blue and grey | G |
| Of shooting cliff and crumbled stone | H |
| With many a wild weed overgrown | H |
| All else black water and afloat | B |
| One rood from shore that single boat | B |
