Adventure Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCCCB DDBEEEB FFBGGGB HHBIIIB

Out of the wood my White Knight cameA
His eyes were bright with a bitter flameA
As I clung to his stirrup leatherB
For I was only a dreaming ladC
Yet oh what a wonderful faith I hadC
And the song in my heart was never so gladC
As we took to the trail togetherB
-
Friends and lovers good bye I saidD
Never once did I turn my headD
Though wickedly wild the weatherB
min were the rover's rags and scarsE
And the rover's bed beneath the starsE
But never the shadow of prison barsE
As we ranged the world togetherB
-
Dreary and darkling was the trailF
But my Knight was clad in a gleaming mailF
And he plucked from his plume a featherB
And oh how foolishly proud was IG
I'll wear it I told him till I dieG
Freemen we'll be of sea and skyG
To the ends of the earth togetherB
-
Yet now I know by my failing breathH
I'm ripe for the last adventure DeathH
And I've reached the end of my tetherB
But my Knight of the shining mail is thereI
And his eyes are bright and he bids me dareI
So into the Dark let's boldly fareI
Into the Dark togetherB
