The Vagabond Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBC DBEBABAB BCBCFGFH DBEBABAB

Give to me the life I loveA
Let the lave go by meB
Give the jolly heaven aboveA
And the byway nigh meB
Bed in the bush with stars to seeB
Bread I dip in the riverC
There's the life for a man like meB
There's the life for everC
-
Let the blow fall soon or lateD
Let what will be o'er meB
Give the face of earth aroundE
And the road before meB
Wealth I seek not hope nor loveA
Nor a friend to know meB
All I seek the heaven aboveA
And the road below meB
-
Or let autumn fall on meB
Where afield I lingerC
Silencing the bird on treeB
Biting the blue fingerC
White as meal the frosty fieldF
Warm the fireside havenG
Not to autumn will I yieldF
Not to winter evenH
-
Let the blow fall soon or lateD
Let what will be o'er meB
Give the face of earth aroundE
And the road before meB
Wealth I ask not hope nor loveA
Nor a friend to know meB
All I ask the heaven aboveA
And the road below meB
