Hero-worship Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| A face seen passing in a crowded street | A |
| A voice heard singing music large and free | B |
| And from that moment life is changed and we | B |
| Become of more heroic temper meet | A |
| To freely ask and give a man complete | A |
| Radiant because of faith we dare to be | B |
| What Nature meant us Brave idolatry | B |
| Which can conceive a hero No deceit | A |
| No knowledge taught by unrelenting years | C |
| Can quench this fierce untamable desire | D |
| We know that what we long for once achieved | E |
| Will cease to satisfy Be still our fears | C |
| If what we worship fail us still the fire | D |
| Burns on and it is much to have believed | E |
