Zion Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EBEB FBFB GBGB| She stood a hill ensceptred Queen | A |
| The glory streaming from her | B |
| While Heaven flashed her rays between | A |
| And shed eternal summer | B |
| - | |
| The gates of morning opened wide | C |
| On sunny dome and steeple | D |
| Noon gleamed upon the mountain side | C |
| 'Thronged with a happy people | D |
| - | |
| And twilight's drowsy half closed eyes | E |
| Beheld that virgin splendour | B |
| Whose orbs were as her darkening skies | E |
| And as her spirit tender | B |
| - | |
| Girt with that strength first horn of right | F |
| Held fast by deeds of honour | B |
| I ler robe she wove with rays more bright | F |
| Than Heaven could rain upon her | B |
| - | |
| Where is that light that citadel | G |
| That robe with woof of glory | B |
| She lost her virtue and she fell | G |
| And only left her story | B |
