The Flood Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCB DEFGGH IIJKKJ| I thought my true love slept | A |
| Behind her chair I crept | A |
| And pulled out a long pin | B |
| The golden flood came out | C |
| She shook it all about | C |
| With both our faces in | B |
| - | |
| Ah little wren I know | D |
| Your mossy small nest now | E |
| A windy cold place is | F |
| No eye can see my face | G |
| Howe'er it watch the place | G |
| Where I half drown in bliss | H |
| - | |
| When I am drowned hald dead | I |
| She laughs and shakes her head | I |
| Flogged by her hair waves I | J |
| Withdraw my face from there | K |
| But never once I swear | K |
| She heard a mercy cry | J |
