The Last Defeat Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABACCBA DDEDFFED| Across the field of day | A |
| In sudden blazon lay | A |
| The pallid bar of gold | B |
| Borne on the shield of day | A |
| Night had endured so long | C |
| And now the Day grew strong | C |
| With lance of light to hold | B |
| The Night at bay | A |
| - | |
| So on my life's dull night | D |
| The splendour of your light | D |
| Traversed the dusky shield | E |
| And shone forth golden bright | D |
| Your colours I have worn | F |
| Through all the fight forlorn | F |
| And these with life I yield | E |
| To night to Night | D |
