Nicholas Of Montenegro Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFG HIHJ KLML

He speaks as straight as his rifles shotA
As straight as a thrusting bladeB
Waiting the deed that shall trouble the truceC
His savage guns have madeB
-
You have dared the wrath of a dozen statesD
Was the challenge that he heardE
We can die but once said the grim old KingF
As he gripped his mountain swordG
-
For I paid in blood for the town I tookH
The blood of my brave men slainI
And if you covet the town I tookH
You must buy it with blood againJ
-
Stern old King of the stark black hillsK
Where the lean fierce eagles breedL
Your speech rings true as your good sword ringsM
And you are a king indeedL
