Wendell Phillips Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAABBCDDCEFEEPEOPLE S ATTORNEY servant of the Right | A |
Pleader for all shades of the solar ray | B |
Complexions dusky yellow red or white | A |
Who in thy country s and thy time s despite | A |
Hast only questioned What will Duty say | B |
And followed swiftly in her narrow way | B |
Tipped is thy tongue with golden eloquence | C |
All honeyed accents fall from off thy lips | D |
Each eager listener his full measure sips | D |
Yet runs to waste the sparkling opulence | C |
The scorn of bigots and the worldling s flout | E |
If Time long held thy merit in suspense | F |
Hastening repentant now with pen devout | E |
Impartial History dare not leave thee out | E |
