Mariana In The North Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF| All her youth is gone her beautiful youth outworn | A |
| Daughter of tarn and tor the moors that were once her home | B |
| No longer know her step on the upland tracks forlorn | A |
| Where she was wont to roam | B |
| - | |
| All her hounds are dead her beautiful hounds are dead | C |
| That paced beside the hoofs of her high and nimble horse | D |
| Or streaked in lean pursuit of the tawny hare that fled | C |
| Out of the yellow gorse | D |
| - | |
| All her lovers have passed her beautiful lovers have passed | E |
| The young and eager men that fought for her arrogant hand | F |
| And the only voice which endures to mourn for her at the last | E |
| Is the voice of the lonely land | F |
