A Dream Of England Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBAACACAC| I had a dream of England Wild and weird | A |
| The billows ravened round her and the wrack | B |
| Darkening and dwindling blotted out the track | B |
| Then flashed on her a bolt that scorched and seared | A |
| She writhing in her ruin rolled and reared | A |
| Then headlonged unto doom that drove her back | B |
| To welter on the waters blind and black | B |
| A homeless hulk a derelict unsteered | A |
| Wailing I woke and through the dawn descried | A |
| Throned on the waves that threatened to o'erwhelm | C |
| The England of my dream resplendent ride | A |
| And armoured Wisdom sovran at the helm | C |
| Through foaming furrows of the future guide | A |
| To wider empire a majestic Realm | C |
