She Hears The Storm Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DED FGHG IJIJ GIGI

There was a time in former yearsA
While my roof tree was hisB
When I should have been distressed by fearsA
At such a night as thisC
-
I should have murmured anxiouslyD
'The prickling rain strikes coldE
His road is bare of hedge or treeD
And he is getting old '-
-
But now the fitful chimney roarF
The drone of Thorncombe treesG
The Froom in flood upon the moorH
The mud of Mellstock LeazeG
-
The candle slanting sooty wick'dI
The thuds upon the thatchJ
The eaves drops on the window flickedI
The clanking garden hatchJ
-
And what they mean to wayfarersG
I scarcely heed or mindI
He has won that storm tight roof of hersG
Which Earth grants all her kindI
