Though Here Fair Blooms The Rose And The Woodbine Waves On High Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAC ABAC DBDC

Though here fair blooms the rose and the woodbine waves on highA
And oak and elm and bracken frond enrich the rolling leaB
And winds as if from Arcady breathe joy as they go byA
Yet I yearn and I pine for my North CountrieC
-
I leave the drowsing south and in dreams I northward flyA
And walk the stretching moors that fringe the ever calling seaB
And am gladdened as the gales that are so bitter sweet go byA
While grey clouds sweetly darken o'er my North CountrieC
-
For there's music in the storms and there's colour in the shadesD
And there's joy e'en in the sorrow widely brooding o'er the seaB
And larger thoughts have birth among the moors and lowly gladesD
And reedy mounds and sands of my North CountrieC
