At The Summit Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAA BBB CCC BBB| Where bold Sierras cut the sky | A |
| Mount Whitney of the high most high | A |
| Halts the pale clouds that wander by | A |
| - | |
| We crept and climbed with eager feet | B |
| Until the world fulfilled complete | B |
| Plunged like despair before his seat | B |
| - | |
| So high the peak was we had won | C |
| Earth's air wore thin its woof undone | C |
| And blue space darkened round the sun | C |
| - | |
| Yet as we trembled there and quailed | B |
| Lo higher yet an eagle scaled | B |
| Smooth steeps of air and sunward sailed | B |
