Sonnets Of The Empire:australia, 1902 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA BCABCAGallant is Spring along thy laughing hills | A |
With wattle s loveliest scent and gleam of gold | B |
When the good rain hath quickened all thy mould | B |
And the hot musk thine air with incense fills | A |
Sweet is the chime of all thy tinkling rills | A |
And fair thy Summer s glory to behold | B |
And soft is life for thee the sunny souled | B |
Far from the world and all its olden ills | A |
- | |
Yet tis not calm that builds the hero breed | B |
High hearts are tempered neath a stormy star | C |
Through want and danger doth the soul increase | A |
Stern rings the clarion voice of Angel Need | B |
To bid thee vanquish self and gaze afar | C |
And save thy soul alive from Harlot Peace | A |
