Seville Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDE FFGGHHAA GGDEFFBB| My Pa and Ma their honeymoon | A |
| Passed in an Andulasian June | A |
| And though produced in Drury Lane | B |
| I must have been conceived in Spain | B |
| Now having lapsed from fair estate | C |
| A coster's is my sorry fate | C |
| Yet on my barrow lo I wheel | D |
| The golden harvest of Saville | E |
| - | |
| Sweet Spanish oranges I cry | F |
| Ah People deem not as they buy | F |
| That in a dream a steel guitar | G |
| I strum beside the Alc aacute zar | G |
| And at the Miralda I meet | H |
| A signorita honey sweet | H |
| And stroll beneath the silver moon | A |
| Like Pa and Ma that magic June | A |
| - | |
| Alack a day I fear I'll never | G |
| Behold the golden Guadalquivir | G |
| Yet here in Brixton how I feel | D |
| My spiritual home's Saville | E |
| And hold the hope that some day I | F |
| Will visit there if just to die | F |
| Feeling I have not lived in vain | B |
| To crown my days in sunny Spain | B |
