The Tribe Of Benjamin: Xv Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDCDD

SONS born of many a loyal Muse to BenA
All true begotten warm with wine or aleB
Bright from the broad light of his presence hailB
Prince Randolph nighest his throne of all his menA
Being highest in spirit and heart who hailed him thenA
King nor might other spread so blithe a sailB
Cartwright a soul pent in with narrower paleB
Praised of thy sire for manful might of penA
Marmion whose verse keeps alway keen and fineC
The perfume of their Apollonian wineC
Who shared with that stout sire of all and theeD
The exuberant chalice of his echoing shrineC
Is not your praise writ broad in gold which heD
Inscribed that all who praise his name should seeD
