The Beggar's Child Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABA ABAB ABAABA

MAVOURNEEN we'll go far awayA
From the net of the crooked townB
Where they grudge us the light of the dayA
-
Around my neck you will layA
Two tight little arms of brownB
Mavourneen we'll go far awayA
From the net of the crooked townB
-
And what will we hear on the wayA
The stir of wings up and downB
In nests where the little birds stayA
Mavourneen we'll go far awayA
From the net of the crooked townB
Where they grudge us the light of the dayA
