The Sower Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBA DEFDEF| A brown sad coloured hillside where the soil | A |
| Fresh from the frequent harrow deep and fine | B |
| Lies bare no break in the remote sky line | B |
| Save where a flock of pigeons streams aloft | C |
| Startled from feed in some low lying croft | C |
| Or far off spires with yellow of sunset shine | B |
| And here the Sower unwittingly divine | B |
| Exerts the silent forethought of his toil | A |
| - | |
| Alone he treads the glebe his measured stride | D |
| Dumb in the yielding soil and tho' small joy | E |
| Dwell in his heavy face as spreads the blind | F |
| Pale grain from his dispensing palm aside | D |
| This plodding churl grows great in his employ | E |
| Godlike he makes provision for mankind | F |
