On A Foreign War Ship's Salute To The Queen's Standard At Osborne Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCDEDEFG| With their deep voice monotonous and slow | A |
| The cannon's thunders roll along the sea | B |
| But 'tis in reverence and to work no woe | A |
| Those sounds here reach the shore and onward flee | B |
| Past the oak woods that climb the grassy lea | B |
| To strike thy terraces and palace fair | C |
| With stately salutation offered thee | B |
| Who of these potent realms the crown dost wear | C |
| So to the fabric of our future fame | D |
| Set in the green oak of our Empire's might | E |
| Shall history's voice with measured praise proclaim | D |
| Thy life long love of justice and of right | E |
| And the good era that thy reign hath been | F |
| To hail thee reverently Victoria Queen | G |
