The Collar-bone Of A Hare Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEAFAFGAGF| Would I could cast a sad on the water | A |
| Where many a king has gone | B |
| And many a king's daughter | A |
| And alight at the comely trees and the lawn | B |
| The playing upon pipes and the dancing | C |
| And learn that the best thing is | D |
| To change my loves while dancing | C |
| And pay but a kiss for a kiss | E |
| I would find by the edge of that water | A |
| The collar bone of a hare | F |
| Worn thin by the lapping of water | A |
| And pierce it through with a gimlet and stare | F |
| At the old bitter world where they marry in churches | G |
| And laugh over the untroubled water | A |
| At all who marry in churches | G |
| Through the white thin bone of a hare | F |
