Song Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEF GBGB| Soon as the glazed and gleaming snow | A |
| Reflects the day dawn cold and clear | B |
| The hunter of the west must go | A |
| In depth of woods to seek the deer | B |
| - | |
| His rifle on his shoulder placed | C |
| His stores of death arranged with skill | D |
| His moccasins and snow shoes laced | C |
| Why lingers he beside the hill | D |
| - | |
| Far in the dim and doubtful light | E |
| Where woody slopes a valley leave | F |
| He sees what none but lover might | E |
| The dwelling of his Genevieve | F |
| - | |
| And oft he turns his truant eye | G |
| And pauses oft and lingers near | B |
| But when he marks the reddening sky | G |
| He bounds away to hunt the deer | B |
