Supremacy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBC DEDEDE| There 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 |
