The On A Proposed Trip South Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDEThey tell me on the morrow I must leave | A |
This winter eyrie for a southern flight | B |
And truth to tell I tremble with delight | B |
At thought of such unheralded reprieve | A |
E'er have I known December in a weave | A |
Of blanched crystal when thrice one short night | B |
Packed full with magic and O blissful sight | B |
N'er May so warmly doth for April grieve | A |
To in a breath's space wish the winter through | C |
And lo to see it fading Where oh where | D |
Is caract could endow this princely boon | E |
Yet I have found it and shall shortly view | C |
The lush high grasses shortly see in air | D |
Gay birds and hear the bees make heavy droon | E |
