Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIJIn yonder brake there is a nest | A |
But come not George too nigh | B |
Lest the poor mother frightened thence | C |
Should leave her young and fly | B |
- | |
Think with what pain for many a day | D |
Soft moss and straw she brought | E |
And let our own dear mother's care | F |
Be present to our thought | E |
- | |
And think how must her heart deplore | G |
And droop with grief and pain | H |
If those she reared and nursed and loved | I |
She ne'er should see again | J |
