What poetic structures are evident in these poetry excerpts?

blank valise

ballad stanza

Something there is that doesn't love a wall.

That sends the frozen. ground-swell under it,

And spills the upper boulders in the sun,

And makes gaps even two can pass abreast.

(Robert Frost, "Mending Wall")

And travelling o'er the desert wide

It was a solemn joy,

To see them, ever side by side,

The sailor and the boy

(Charles Dickens, "The Song of the Wreck")

The king sits in Dumferling toune,

Drinking the blude-reid wine:

O quhar will get guid sailor,

To sail this schip of mine.

(Anonymous, "Sir Patrick Spens)

    I believe the first and third poems are free verse, and the second one is a sonnet since it rhymes on every other line.
