To Alfred Tennyson - 1883 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC ABDA EFGEFGFamiliar with thy melody | A |
We go debating of its power | B |
As churls who hear it hour by hour | B |
Contemn the skylark's minstrelsy | C |
- | |
As shepherds on a Highland lea | A |
Think lightly of the heather flower | B |
Which makes the moorland's purple dower | D |
As far away as eye can see | A |
- | |
Let churl or shepherd change his sky | E |
And labour in the city dark | F |
Where there is neither air nor room | G |
How often will the exile sigh | E |
To hear again the unwearied lark | F |
And see the heather's lavish bloom | G |
