Hounds Going Home In The Dark Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EBEBFGH EBEB

Rustle of feet in the roadside grassA
Trample of horses' hoofs and HarkB
Blast of an anxious horn Hounds passA
Hounds going home in the darkB
Bold was our huntsman galloping freeC
On a difficult line to the hills to dayD
But his hand is trembling against his kneeC
At the hint of a light on the King's HighwayD
-
Car ' And the gold spreads over the skyE
Keep to the front there Stop them MarkB
' Toot toot too oot ' Halloo there HiE
Hounds going home in the darkB
Crack of a whip as the headlights nearF
Blind in the blaze they group and gropeG
Curse the feller and can't he hearH
Put 'em across there I Cope boys cope '-
-
When never a star is hung in the skyE
With never a lamp or a lantern sparkB
Huntsman and Whips go groping byE
Blowing them home in the darkB
