Christmas Holidays Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAAAAACACADD| Along the Woodford road there comes a noise | A |
| Of wheels and Mr Rounding's neat post chaise | B |
| Struggles along drawn by a pair of bays | B |
| With Reverend Mr Crow and six small boys | A |
| Who ever and anon declare their joys | A |
| With trumping horns and juvenile huzzas | A |
| At going home to spend their Christmas days | A |
| And changing learning's pains for pleasure's toys | A |
| Six weeks elapse and down the Woodford way | C |
| A heavy coach drags six more heavy souls | A |
| But no glad urchins shout no trumpets bray | C |
| The carriage makes a halt the gate bell tolls | A |
| And little boys walk in as dull and mum | D |
| As six new scholars to the Deaf and Dumb | D |
