The Muse Of Australia Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCCCD BBBBBBBD E| Where the pines with the eagles are nestled in rifts | A |
| And the torrent leaps down to the surges | B |
| I have followed her clambering over the clifts | B |
| By the chasms and moon haunted verges | B |
| I know she is fair as the angels are fair | C |
| For have I not caught a faint glimpse of her there | C |
| A glimpse of her face and her glittering hair | C |
| And a hand with the Harp of Australia | D |
| - | |
| I never can reach you to hear the sweet voice | B |
| So full with the music of fountains | B |
| Oh when will you meet with that soul of your choice | B |
| Who will lead you down here from the mountains | B |
| A lyre bird lit on a shimmering space | B |
| It dazzled mine eyes and I turned from the place | B |
| And wept in the dark for a glorious face | B |
| And a hand with the Harp of Australia | D |
