Gipsies Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEEFGHHIIJJKK LLLLMMNN| Yet are they here the same unbroken knot | A |
| Of human Beings in the self same spot | A |
| Men women children yea the frame | B |
| Of the whole spectacle the same | B |
| Only their fire seems bolder yielding light | C |
| Now deep and red the colouring of night | C |
| That on their Gipsy faces falls | D |
| Their bed of straw and blanket walls | D |
| Twelve hours twelve bounteous hours are gone while I | E |
| Have been a traveller under open sky | E |
| Much witnessing of change and cheer | F |
| Yet as I left I find them here | G |
| The weary Sun betook himself to rest | H |
| Then issued Vesper from the fulgent west | H |
| Outshining like a visible God | I |
| The glorious path in which he trod | I |
| And now ascending after one dark hour | J |
| And one night's diminution of her power | J |
| Behold the mighty Moon this way | K |
| She looks as if at them but they | K |
| Regard not her oh better wrong and strife | L |
| By nature transient than this torpid life | L |
| Life which the very stars reprove | L |
| As on their silent tasks they move | L |
| Yet witness all that stirs in heaven or earth | M |
| In scorn I speak not they are what their birth | M |
| And breeding suffer them to be | N |
| Wild outcasts of society | N |
