The Indian Gipsy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAB CDCCD EFEEF| In tattered robes that hoard a glittering trace | A |
| Of bygone colours broidered to the knee | B |
| Behold her daughter of a wandering race | A |
| Tameless with the bold falcon's agile grace | A |
| And the lithe tiger's sinuous majesty | B |
| - | |
| With frugal skill her simple wants she tends | C |
| She folds her tawny heifers and her sheep | D |
| On lonely meadows when the daylight ends | C |
| Ere the quick night upon her flock descends | C |
| Like a black panther from the caves of sleep | D |
| - | |
| Time's river winds in foaming centuries | E |
| Its changing swift irrevocable course | F |
| To far off and incalculable seas | E |
| She is twin born with primal mysteries | E |
| And drinks of life at Time's forgotten source | F |
