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 high | A |
| And oak and elm and bracken frond enrich the rolling lea | B |
| And winds as if from Arcady breathe joy as they go by | A |
| Yet I yearn and I pine for my North Countrie | C |
| - | |
| I leave the drowsing south and in dreams I northward fly | A |
| And walk the stretching moors that fringe the ever calling sea | B |
| And am gladdened as the gales that are so bitter sweet go by | A |
| While grey clouds sweetly darken o'er my North Countrie | C |
| - | |
| For there's music in the storms and there's colour in the shades | D |
| And there's joy e'en in the sorrow widely brooding o'er the sea | B |
| And larger thoughts have birth among the moors and lowly glades | D |
| And reedy mounds and sands of my North Countrie | C |
