Ionic Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEDFGHI| That we've broken their statues | A |
| that we've driven them out of their temples | B |
| doesn't mean at all that the gods are dead | C |
| O land of Ionia they're still in love with you | D |
| their souls still keep your memory | E |
| When an August dawn wakes over you | D |
| your atmosphere is potent with their life | F |
| and sometimes a young ethereal figure | G |
| indistinct in rapid flight | H |
| wings across your hills | I |
