The Garlands Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDDEFGECF| KLOPSTOCK would lead us away from Pindus no longer for laurel | A |
| May we be eager the homely acorn alone must content us | B |
| Yet he himself his more than epic crusade is conducting | C |
| High on Golgotha's summit that foreign gods he may honour | D |
| Yet on what hill he prefers let him gather the angels together | D |
| Suffer deserted disciples to weep o'er the grave of the just one | E |
| There where a hero and saint hath died where a bard breath'd his numbers | F |
| Both for our life and our death an ensample of courage resplendent | G |
| And of the loftiest human worth to bequeath ev'ry nation | E |
| There will joyously kneel in devotion ecstatic revering | C |
| Thorn and laurel garland and all its charms and its tortures | F |
Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe
