On The Field Of Waterloo Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADAAAADSo then the name which travels side by side | A |
With English life from childhood Waterloo | B |
Means this The sun is setting Their strife grew | B |
Till the sunset and ended says our guide | A |
It lacked the chord by stage use sanctified | A |
Yet I believe one should have thrilled For me | C |
I grinned not and 'twas something certainly | C |
These held their point and did not turn but died | A |
So much is very well Under each span | D |
Of these ploughed fields 'tis the guide still there rot | A |
Three nations' slain a thousand thousandfold | A |
Am I to weep Good sirs the earth is old | A |
Of the whole earth there is no single spot | A |
But hath among its dust the dust of man | D |
