Sonnets Of The Empire: Dawn At Liverpool Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECFE| The Sunlight laughs along the serried stone | A |
| About whose feet the wastrel tide runs free | B |
| Light lie the shipmasts fairy like to see | B |
| Athwart the royal city s splendour thrown | A |
| On runs the noble river wide and lone | A |
| Like some great soul that presses to the sea | B |
| Where life is rendered to eternity | B |
| And eager thought hath rest in the Unknown | A |
| - | |
| So sets thy tide my country to the deep | C |
| Whose face is black with thunder near and far | D |
| And vexed with fleering gusts and tyrannous rain | E |
| Shall the cloud lift and give thee rest and sleep | C |
| Or wilt thou mid the surge and crash of war | F |
| Shatter thy life against the invading main | E |
