A Rill Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFFGG ASo when the pretty rill a place espies | A |
Where with the pebbles she would wantonize | A |
And that her upper stream so much doth wrong her | B |
To drive her thence and let her play no longer | B |
If she with too loud mutt'ring ran away | C |
As being much incens'd to leave her play | C |
A western mild and pretty whispering gale | D |
Came dallying with the leaves along the dale | D |
And seem'd as with the water it did chide | E |
Because it ran so long unpacified | E |
Yea and methought it bade her leave that coil | F |
Or he would choke her up with leaves and soil | F |
Whereat the riv'let in my mind did weep | G |
And hurl'd her head into a silent deep | G |

From Britannia's Pastorals | A |
