The Blue-eyed Maid Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDD EFEFGHDD| Sweet are the hours when roseate spring | A |
| With health and joy salutes the day | B |
| When zephyr borne on wanton wing | A |
| Soft whispering wakes the blushing May | B |
| Sweet are the hours yet not so sweet | C |
| As when my blue eyed Maid I meet | C |
| And hear her soul entrancing tale | D |
| Sequester'd in the shadowy vale | D |
| - | |
| The mellow horn's long echoing notes | E |
| Startle the morn commingling strong | F |
| At eve the harp's wild music floats | E |
| And ravish'd Silence drinks the song | F |
| Yet sweeter is the song of love | G |
| When EMMA'S voice enchants the grove | H |
| While listening sylphs repeat the tale | D |
| Sequester'd in the silent vale | D |
