Newport Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACDAEFGEFHON these brown rocks the waves dissolve in spray | A |
As when our fathers saw them first alee | B |
If such a one could come again and see | C |
This ancient haven in its latter day | A |
These haughty palaces and gardens gay | A |
These dense soft lawns bedecked by many a tree | C |
Borne like a gem from Ind or Araby | D |
If he could see the race he bred at play | A |
Bright like a flock of tropic birds allured | E |
To pause a moment on their southward wing | F |
By these warm sands and by these summer seas | G |
Would he not cry 'Alas have I endured | E |
Exile and famine hate and suffering | F |
To win religious liberty for these ' | H |
