An Uninscribed Monument Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: A BCDDEFGGFHIJHKK

On one of the Battle fields of the WildernessA
-
-
Silence and solitude may hintB
Whose home is in yon piney woodC
What I though tableted could never tellD
The din which here befellD
And striving of the multitudeE
The iron cones and spheres of deathF
Set round me in their rustG
These too if justG
Shall speak with more than animated breathF
Thou who beholdest if thy thoughtH
Not narrowed down to personal cheerI
Take in the import of the quiet hereJ
The after quiet the calm full fraughtH
Thou too wilt silent standK
Silent as I and lonesome as the landK

Herman Melville
