The Likeness Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHFD| When I came forth this morn I saw | A |
| Quite twenty cloudlets in the air | B |
| And then I saw a flock of sheep | C |
| Which told me how these clouds came there | B |
| - | |
| That flock of sheep on that green grass | D |
| Well might it lie so still and proud | E |
| Its likeness had been drawn in heaven | F |
| On a blue sky in silvery cloud | E |
| - | |
| I gazed me up I gazed me down | G |
| And swore though good the likeness was | H |
| 'Twas a long way from justice done | F |
| To such white wool such sparkling grass | D |
