Wendell Phillips Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAABBCDDCEFEE

PEOPLE S ATTORNEY servant of the RightA
Pleader for all shades of the solar rayB
Complexions dusky yellow red or whiteA
Who in thy country s and thy time s despiteA
Hast only questioned What will Duty sayB
And followed swiftly in her narrow wayB
Tipped is thy tongue with golden eloquenceC
All honeyed accents fall from off thy lipsD
Each eager listener his full measure sipsD
Yet runs to waste the sparkling opulenceC
The scorn of bigots and the worldling s floutE
If Time long held thy merit in suspenseF
Hastening repentant now with pen devoutE
Impartial History dare not leave thee outE
