Rural Architecture Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCCB DDEFFE GGADDA HHIBBI| There's George Fisher Charles Fleming and Reginald Shore | A |
| Three rosy cheeked school boys the highest not more | A |
| Than the height of a counsellor's bag | B |
| To the top of GREAT HOW did it please them to climb | C |
| And there they built up without mortar or lime | C |
| A Man on the peak of the crag | B |
| - | |
| They built him of stones gathered up as they lay | D |
| They built him and christened him all in one day | D |
| An urchin both vigorous and hale | E |
| And so without scruple they called him Ralph Jones | F |
| Now Ralph is renowned for the length of his bones | F |
| The Magog of Legberthwaite dale | E |
| - | |
| Just half a week after the wind sallied forth | G |
| And in anger or merriment out of the north | G |
| Coming on with a terrible pother | A |
| From the peak of the crag blew the giant away | D |
| And what did these school boys The very next day | D |
| They went and they built up another | A |
| - | |
| Some little I've seen of blind boisterous works | H |
| By Christian disturbers more savage than Turks | H |
| Spirits busy to do and undo | I |
| At remembrance whereof my blood sometimes will flag | B |
| Then light hearted Boys to the top of the crag | B |
| And I'll build up giant with you | I |
