The Long Hill Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EBEB| I must have passed the crest a while ago | A |
| And now I am going down | B |
| Strange to have crossed the crest and not to know | A |
| But the brambles were always catching the hem of my gown | B |
| - | |
| All the morning I thought how proud I should be | C |
| To stand there straight as a queen | D |
| Wrapped in the wind and the sun with the world under me | C |
| But the air was dull there was little I could have seen | D |
| - | |
| It was nearly level along the beaten track | E |
| And the brambles caught in my gown | B |
| But it's no use now to think of turning back | E |
| The rest of the way will be only going down | B |
