Indiana Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADECDEFOur Land our Home the common home indeed | A |
Of soil born children and adopted ones | B |
The stately daughters and the stalwart sons | B |
Of Industry All greeting and godspeed | A |
O home to proudly live for and if need | A |
Be proudly die for with the roar of guns | B |
Blent with our latest prayer So died men once | C |
Lo Peace As we look on the land They freed | A |
Its harvests all in ocean over flow | D |
Poured round autumnal coasts in billowy gold | E |
Its corn and wine and balmed fruits and flow'rs | C |
We know the exaltation that they know | D |
Who now steadfast inheritors behold | E |
The Land Elysian marvelling 'This is ours ' | F |
