A Wreath Of Sonnets (8/14) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CDD CDE

Where tempests roar and nature is unkindA
Such was our land since Samo's rule had passedB
With Samo's spirit now an icy blastB
Sweeps o'er his grave reft from the nation's mindA
-
Our fathers' bickerings let Pepin bindA
His yoke upon us then came thick and fastB
Bloodstained revolts and wars the Turk at lastB
With woes our history is deeply linedA
-
Our age of glory needs must disappearC
When deeds of valour ceased in our past stateD
And triumphs that our songs could celebrateD
-
The flowers on our Parnassus shyly rearC
Their heads the flowers that have been spared by fateD
They were all fed on many a plaint and tearE
