Hunter's Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CBCB DBBB EBEB

The toils are pitched and the stakes are setA
Ever sing merrily merrilyB
The bows they bend and the knives they whetA
Hunters live so cheerilyB
-
It was a stag a stag of tenC
Bearing its branches sturdilyB
He came silently down the glenC
Ever sing hardily hardilyB
-
It was there he met with a wounded doeD
She was bleeding deathfullyB
She warned him of the toils belowB
O so faithfully faithfullyB
-
He had an eye and he could heedE
Ever sing so warily warilyB
He had a foot and he could speedE
Hunters watch so narrowlyB

Sir Walter Scott
