The Tear-drop Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABC DEFF GHAAWae is my heart and the tear's in my e'e | A |
Lang lang Joy's been a stranger to me | A |
Forsaken and friendless my burden I bear | B |
And the sweet voice o' Pity ne'er sounds in my ear | C |
- | |
Love thou hast pleasures and deep hae I lov'd | D |
Love thou hast sorrows and sair hae I prov'd | E |
But this bruised heart that now bleeds in my breast | F |
I can feel by its throbbings will soon be at rest | F |
- | |
Of if I were where happy I hae been | G |
Down by yon stream and yon bonie castle green | H |
For there he is wand'ring and musing on me | A |
Wha wad soon dry the tear frae his Phillis' e'e | A |
Robert Burns
