Inver Snaid

Content

• A Scottish town along Loch Lomond
• We need to leave the wet and wild parts of nature alone, let them stay a part of our world (conservation)
• Beauty of nature a la “Pied Beauty”

Style

• Ballad meter, sounds like a narrative
• Uses dialect: burn, brae (reigionalism)
• Uses neologisms: twindled, degged (for description)
• Repetition, consonance, and alliteration make the poem a romp

Quotes

• “Degged with dew, dappled with dew, / Are the groins of the braes that the brook treads through.”
