The Laurentians Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECDE

These mountains reign alone they do not shareA
The transitory life of woods and streamsB
Wrapt in the deep solemnity of dreamsB
They drain the sunshine of the upper airA
Beneath their peaks the huge clouds here and thereA
Take counsel of the wind which all night screamsB
Through grey burnt forests where the moonlight beamsB
On hidden lakes and rocks worn smooth and bareA
-
These mountains once throned in some primal seaC
Shook half the world with thunder and the sunD
Pierced not the gloom that clung about their crestE
Now with sealed lips toilers from toil set freeC
Unvexed by fate the part they played being doneD
They watch and wait in venerable restE

Frederick George Scott
