Two Rivers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ACAC ADAD EFEF DGDBThy summer voice Musketaquit | A |
Repeats the music of the rain | B |
But sweeter rivers pulsing flit | A |
Through thee as thou through the Concord Plain | B |
- | |
Thou in thy narrow banks art pent | A |
The stream I love unbounded goes | C |
Through flood and sea and firmament | A |
Through light through life it forward flows | C |
- | |
I see the inundation sweet | A |
I hear the spending of the steam | D |
Through years through men through Nature fleet | A |
Through love and thought through power and dream | D |
- | |
Musketaquit a goblin strong | E |
Of shard and flint makes jewels gay | F |
They lose their grief who hear his song | E |
And where he winds is the day of day | F |
- | |
So forth and brighter fares my stream | D |
Who drink it shall not thirst again | G |
No darkness taints its equal gleam | D |
And ages drop in it like rain | B |
