Russell Gurney Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEBFGHIJHGIn that high country whither thou art gone | A |
Right noble friend thou walkest with thy peers | B |
The gathered great of many a hundred years | B |
Few are left like thee few I say not none | C |
Else were thy England soon a Babylon | D |
A land of outcry mockery and tears | E |
Higher than law a refuge from its fears | B |
Wast thou in whom embodied Justice shone | F |
The smile that gracious broke on thy grand face | G |
Was like the sunrise of a morn serene | H |
Among the mountains making sweet their awe | I |
Thou both the gentle and the strong didst draw | J |
Thee childhood loved and on thy breast would lean | H |
As whence thou cam'st it knew the lofty place | G |
