The Ploughman's Life Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCAD| As I was a wand'ring ae morning in spring | A |
| I heard a young ploughman sae sweetly to sing | A |
| And as he was singin' thir words he did say | B |
| There's nae life like the ploughman's in the month o' sweet May | B |
| - | |
| The lav'rock in the morning she'll rise frae her nest | C |
| And mount i' the air wi' the dew on her breast | C |
| And wi' the merry ploughman she'll whistle and sing | A |
| And at night she'll return to her nest back again | D |
