Guards! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AB CADE FGHI JGHG| A Review in Hyde Park | A |
| The Crowd Watches | B |
| - | |
| Where the trees rise like cliffs proud and blue tinted in the distance | C |
| Between the cliffs of the trees on the grey green park | A |
| Rests a still line of soldiers red motionless range of guards | D |
| Smouldering with darkened busbies beneath the bay onets' slant rain | E |
| - | |
| Colossal in nearness a blue police sits still on his horse | F |
| Guarding the path his hand relaxed at his thigh | G |
| And skyward his face is immobile eyelids aslant | H |
| In tedium and mouth relaxed as if smiling ineffable tedium | I |
| - | |
| So So Gaily a general canters across the space | J |
| With white plumes blinking under the evening grey sky | G |
| And suddenly as if the ground moved | H |
| The red range heaves in slow magnetic reply | G |
