Moonlight North And South Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABAB CDEDCD FGFGFG AGAGAG GFGFGF HAHAHA| Love we have heard together | A |
| The North Sea sing his tune | B |
| And felt the wind's wild feather | A |
| Brush past our cheeks at noon | B |
| And seen the cloudy weather | A |
| Made wondrous with the moon | B |
| - | |
| Where loveliness is rarest | C |
| Tis also prized the most | D |
| The moonlight shone her fairest | E |
| Along that level coast | D |
| Where sands and dunes the barest | C |
| Of beauty seldom boast | D |
| - | |
| Far from that bleak and rude land | F |
| An exile I remain | G |
| Fixed in a fair and good land | F |
| A valley and a plain | G |
| Rich in fat fields and woodland | F |
| And watered well with rain | G |
| - | |
| Last night the full moon's splendour | A |
| Shone down on Taunton Dene | G |
| And pasture fresh and tender | A |
| And coppice dusky green | G |
| The heavenly light did render | A |
| In one enchanted scene | G |
| - | |
| One fair unearthly vision | G |
| Yet soon mine eyes were cloyed | F |
| And found those fields Elysian | G |
| Too rich to be enjoyed | F |
| Or was it our division | G |
| Made all my pleasure void | F |
| - | |
| Across the window glasses | H |
| The curtain then I drew | A |
| And as a sea bird passes | H |
| In sleep my spirit flew | A |
| To grey and windswept grasses | H |
| And moonlit sands and you | A |
