The Death Of Sisera Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDBBEEFG| When Deborah the prophetess ruled in God s land | A |
| And Sisera died under Jael s fierce hand | A |
| His mother looked forth at the close of the day | B |
| When the roar of the war died in silence away | B |
| And she cried Still his charriot tarries afar | C |
| Are its wheels clogged about with the slaughter of war | D |
| And her damsels made answer Awhile yet they stay | B |
| To trample the fallen dividing the prey | B |
| Day shut and the stars that had doomed him to death | E |
| Rushed out while to listen she pent in her breath | E |
| But the sound of his chariot over the plain | F |
| Like a far roll of thunder came never again | G |
