The Dungeoned Anarchist Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCDHe crouches voiceless in his tomb like cell | A |
Forgot of all things save his jailer's hate | B |
That turns the daylight from his iron grate | B |
To make his prison more and more a hell | A |
For him no coming day or hour shall spell | A |
Deliverance or bid his soul await | B |
The hand of Mercy at his dungeon gate | B |
He would not know even though a kingdom fell | A |
The black night hides his hand before his eyes | C |
That grim clenched hand still burning with the sting | D |
Of royal blood he holds it like a prize | C |
Waiting the hour when he at last shall fling | D |
The stain in God's face shrieking as he dies | C |
Behold the unconquered arm that slew a king | D |
