From A Window In Princes Street - To M. M. M'b. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGHI| Above the Crags that fade and gloom | A |
| Starts the bare knee of Arthur's Seat | B |
| Ridged high against the evening bloom | A |
| The Old Town rises street on street | B |
| With lamps bejewelled straight ahead | C |
| Like rampired walls the houses lean | D |
| All spired and domed and turreted | C |
| Sheer to the valley's darkling green | D |
| Ranged in mysterious disarray | E |
| The Castle menacing and austere | F |
| Looms through the lingering last of day | E |
| And in the silver dusk you hear | G |
| Reverberated from crag and scar | H |
| Bold bugles blowing points of war | I |
