A Gravestone Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEE| Far from the churchyard dig his grave | A |
| On some green mound beside the wave | A |
| To westward sea and sky alone | B |
| And sunsets Put a mossy stone | B |
| With mortal name and date a harp | C |
| And bunch of wild flowers carven sharp | C |
| Then leave it free to winds that blow | D |
| And patient mosses creeping slow | D |
| And wandering wings and footsteps rare | E |
| Of human creature pausing there | E |
William Allingham
