Afternoon Service At Mellstock Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE EFEF| On afternoons of drowsy calm | A |
| We stood in the panelled pew | B |
| Singing one voiced a Tate and Brady psalm | C |
| To the tune of Cambridge New | B |
| - | |
| We watched the elms we watched the rooks | D |
| The clouds upon the breeze | E |
| Between the whiles of glancing at our books | D |
| And swaying like the trees | E |
| - | |
| So mindless were those outpourings | E |
| Though I am not aware | F |
| That I have gained by subtle thought on things | E |
| Since we stood psalming there | F |
