The Hosting Of The Sidhe Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABCDDCEFFEBAAB| The host is riding from Knocknarea | A |
| And over the grave of Clooth na Bare | A |
| Caoilte tossing his burning hair | A |
| And Niamh calling Away come away | B |
| Empty your heart of its mortal dream | C |
| The winds awaken the leaves whirl round | D |
| Our cheeks are pale our hair is unbound | D |
| Our breasts are heaving our eyes are agleam | C |
| Our arms are waving our lips are apart | E |
| And if any gaze on our rushing band | F |
| We come between him and the deed of his hand | F |
| We come between him and the hope of his heart | E |
| The host is rushing 'twixt night and day | B |
| And where is there hope or deed as fair | A |
| Caoilte tossing his burning hair | A |
| And Niamh calling Away come away | B |
