Auster Rampant! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECDEA larger Argo ploughs our clearer blue | A |
Your Zephyr won no such auroral bride | B |
As her I woo The South is whence the tide | B |
Springs downhill to refresh the North and you | A |
To melt your adamantine basements too | A |
When as your sagas sang the flaming eyed | B |
Children of Southern Muspel scatter wide | B |
Your world your gods when Ragnarok is due | A |
- | |
Antipodean Whew We are the head | C |
The oceanic head while you slung low | D |
With lands that scrape the floor of heaven gaze | E |
Par o'er the Bull your odd Europa wed | C |
Up to the Chambers of the South where glow | D |
Our pennant stars our wider Milky Ways | E |
