The Dying Hero Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABABCB DEEDDF| His greatness hath not left him till the years | A |
| Have won the nation from her children dead | B |
| And robbed her of remembrance where she rears | A |
| Her monuments above the blood they shed | B |
| Will his name want for homage with sad fears | A |
| The Union winds her garlands o'er his head | B |
| And fondly wreathes her love bedewed with tears | C |
| To bless the hero on his dying bed | B |
| - | |
| His luster lives untarnished as he lies | D |
| Where Malady has bound him in wild pain | E |
| And only Death can loose the heavy chain | E |
| That galls her captive while his nature dies | D |
| He seems far greater in his country's eyes | D |
| Than if an Appomattox spake again | F |
