Mongan Thinks Of His Past Greatness Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEF| I have drunk ale from the Country of the Young | A |
| And weep because I know all things now | B |
| I have been a hazel tree and they hung | A |
| The Pilot Star and the Crooked Plough | B |
| Among my leaves in times out of mind | C |
| I became a rush that horses tread | D |
| I became a man a hater of the wind | C |
| Knowing one out of all things alone that his head | D |
| Would not lie on the breast or his lips on the hair | E |
| Of the woman that he loves until he dies | F |
| Although the rushes and the fowl of the air | E |
| Cry of his love with their pitiful cries | F |
