The Staircase Of Notre Dame, Paris Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCDEFGEFGAs one who groping in a narrow stair | A |
Hath a strong sound of bells upon his ears | B |
Which being at a distance off appears | B |
Quite close to him because of the pent air | A |
So with this France She stumbles file and square | A |
Darkling and without space for breath each one | C |
Who hears the thunder says It shall anon | C |
Be in among her ranks to scatter her | D |
This may be and it may be that the storm | E |
Is spent in rain upon the unscathed seas | F |
Or wasteth other countries ere it die | G |
Till she having climbed always through the swarm | E |
Of darkness and of hurtling sound from these | F |
Shall step forth on the light in a still sky | G |
