To Elsie Fogerty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCADDAEFGFHIOn living lips to mould and modulate | A |
The shapes of sound that each may mirror true | B |
The mystery of the word and breathe it new | B |
Into the entranced ear warm and intimate | C |
For heart and mind such beauty to create | A |
As on our English stage may fitly nurse | D |
Its heritage the glory of voice and verse | D |
To this you chose your days to dedicate | A |
You serve that art you teach its subtle rule | E |
Of rhythmic life Accept for this to day | F |
Our homage and it may be turn like one | G |
Who from the hill turns on his homeward way | F |
To look back on the vale and bountiful | H |
Ripe harvest that his happy toil has sown | I |
