Rhyme Scheme: ABCCB DEFFG HIJJI KLMMLO thou that sendest out the man | A |
To rule by land and sea | B |
Strong mother of a Lion line | C |
Be proud of those strong sons of thine | C |
Who wrench'd their rights from thee | B |
- | |
What wonder if in noble heat | D |
Those men thine arms withstood | E |
Retaught the lesson thou hadst taught | F |
And in thy spirit with thee fought | F |
Who sprang from English blood | G |
- | |
But thou rejoice with liberal joy | H |
Lift up thy rocky face | I |
And shatter when the storms are black | J |
In many a streaming torrent back | J |
The seas that shock thy base | I |
- | |
Whatever harmonies of law | K |
The growing world assume | L |
Thy work is thine the single note | M |
From that deep chord which Hampden smote | M |
Will vibrate to the doom | L |
Alfred Lord Tennyson
