Question

Pick out two pairs of rhyming words from the first stanza. the poem is this FASTER than fairies,

faster than witches,

Bridges and houses,

hedges and ditches;

And charging along

like troops in a battle,

All through the meadows,

the horses and cattle;

All of the sights

of the hill and the plain

Fly as thick

as driving rain;

And ever again,

in the wink of an eye,

Painted stations

whistle by.

Here is a child

who clambers and scrambles,

All by himself

and gathering brambles;

Here is a tramp

who stands and gazes;

And there is the green

for stringing the daisies!​
