As Toilsome I Wander'd Virginia's Woods Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFG HIJAG| As toilsome I wander'd Virginia's woods | A |
| To the music of rustling leaves kick'd by my feet for 'twas autumn | B |
| I mark'd at the foot of a tree the grave of a soldier | C |
| Mortally wounded he and buried on the retreat easily all I could understand | D |
| The halt of a midday hour when up no time to lose yet this sign left | E |
| On a tablet scrawl'd and nail'd on the tree by the grave | F |
| Bold cautious true and my loving comrade | G |
| - | |
| Long long I muse then on my way go wandering | H |
| Many a changeful season to follow and many a scene of life | I |
| Yet at times through changeful season and scene abrupt alone or in the crowded street | J |
| Comes before me the unknown soldier's grave come the inscription rude in Virginia's woods | A |
| Bold cautious true and my loving comrade | G |
