Hospital Barge At Cerisy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDBCDB| Budging the sluggard ripples of the Somme | A |
| A barge round old C risy slowly slewed | B |
| Softly her engines down the current screwed | B |
| And chuckled softly with contented hum | A |
| Till fairy tinklings struck their croonings dumb | A |
| The waters rumpling at the stern subdued | B |
| The lock gate took her bulging amplitude | B |
| Gently from out the gurgling lock she swum | A |
| - | |
| One reading by that calm bank shaded eyes | C |
| To watch her lessening westward quietly | D |
| Then as she neared the bend her funnel screamed | B |
| And that long lamentation made him wise | C |
| How unto Avalon in agony | D |
| Kings passed in the dark barge which Merlin dreamed | B |
