Meadowsweet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABAB CDDCCD| Through grass through amber'd cornfields our slow Stream | A |
| Fringed with its flags and reeds and rushes tall | B |
| And Meadowsweet the chosen of them all | B |
| By wandering children yellow as the cream | A |
| Of those great cows winds on as in a dream | A |
| By mill and footbridge hamlet old and small | B |
| Red roofs gray tower and sees the sunset gleam | A |
| On mullion'd windows of an ivied Hall | B |
| - | |
| There once upon a time the heavy King | C |
| Trod out its perfume from the Meadowsweet | D |
| Strown like a woman's love beneath his feet | D |
| In stately dance or jovial banqueting | C |
| When all was new and in its wayfaring | C |
| Our Streamlet curved as now through grass and wheat | D |
