Stratford-on-avon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDAEAEFF

Be glad in heaven above all souls inspheredA
Most royal and most loyal born of menB
Shakespeare of all on earth beloved or fearedA
Or worshipped highest in sight of human kenB
The homestead hallowed by thy sovereign birthC
Whose name being one with thine stands higher than RomeD
Forgets not how of all on English earthC
Their trust is holiest there who have their homeD
Stratford is thine and England's None that hateA
The commonweal whose empire sets men freeE
Find comfort there where once by grace of fateA
A soul was born as boundless as the seaE
If life if love if memory now be thineF
Rejoice that still thy Stratford bears thy signF

Algernon Charles Swinburne
