Carnot Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCDC| Death winged with fire of hate from deathless hell | A |
| Wherein the souls of anarchs hiss and die | B |
| With stroke as dire has cloven a heart as high | B |
| As twice beyond the wide sea's westward swell | A |
| The living lust of death had power to quell | A |
| Through ministry of murderous hands whereby | B |
| Dark fate bade Lincoln's head and Garfield's lie | B |
| Low even as his who bids his France farewell | A |
| France now no heart that would not weep with thee | C |
| Loved ever faith or freedom From thy hand | D |
| The staff of state is broken hope unmanned | D |
| With anguish doubts if freedom's self be free | C |
| The snake souled anarch's fang strikes all the land | D |
| Cold and all hearts unsundered by the sea | C |
