On Leaving A Village In Scotland Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFFEGGClysdale as thy romantic vales I leave | A |
And bid farewell to each retiring hill | B |
Where musing memory seems to linger still | B |
Tracing the broad bright landscape much I grieve | A |
That mingled with the toiling crowd no more | C |
I may return your varied views to mark | D |
Of rocks amid the sunshine towering dark | D |
Of rivers winding wild or mountains hoar | C |
Or castle gleaming on the distant steep | E |
Yet many a look back on thy hills I cast | F |
And many a softened image of the past | F |
Sadly combine and bid remembrance keep | E |
To soothe me with fair scenes and fancies rude | G |
When I pursue my path in solitude | G |
