Supremacy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBC DEDEDEThere is a drear and lonely tract of hell | A |
From all the common gloom removed afar | B |
A flat sad land it is where shadows are | B |
Whose lorn estate my verse may never tell | A |
I walked among them and I knew them well | A |
Men I had slandered on life's little star | B |
For churls and sluggards and I knew the scar | B |
Upon their brows of woe ineffable | C |
- | |
But as I went majestic on my way | D |
Into the dark they vanished one by one | E |
Till with a shaft of God's eternal day | D |
The dream of all my glory was undone | E |
And with a fool's importunate dismay | D |
I heard the dead men singing in the sun | E |
