King's Cross Station Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEBF GHI| This circled cosmos whereof man is god | A |
| Has suns and stars of green and gold and red | B |
| And cloudlands of great smoke that range o'er range | C |
| Far floating hide its iron heavens o'erhead | B |
| - | |
| God shall we ever honour what we are | D |
| And see one moment ere the age expire | E |
| The vision of man shouting and erect | B |
| Whirled by the shrieking steeds of flood and fire | F |
| - | |
| Or must Fate act the same grey farce again | G |
| And wait till one amid Time's wrecks and scars | H |
| Speaks to a ruin here 'What poet race | I |
| Shot such cyclopean arches at the stars ' | - |
