New Hampshire Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCBCDEDEFGGGHGHGII| GOD bless New Hampshire from her granite peaks | A |
| Once more the voice of Stark and Langdon speaks | A |
| The long bound vassal of the exulting South | B |
| For very shame her self forged chain has broken | C |
| Turn the black seal of slavery from her mouth | B |
| And in the clear tones of her old time spoken | C |
| Oh all undreamed of all unhoped for changes | D |
| The tyrants's ally proves his sternest foe | E |
| To all his biddings from her mountain ranges | D |
| New Hampshire thunders an indignant No | E |
| Who is it now despairs Oh faint of heart | F |
| Look upward to those Northern mountain cold | G |
| Flouted by Freedom's victor flag unrolled | G |
| And gather strength to bear a manlier part | G |
| All is not lost The angel of God's blessing | H |
| Encamps with Freedom on the field of fight | G |
| Still to her banner day by day are pressing | H |
| Unlooked for allies striking for the right | G |
| Courage then Northern hearts Be firm be true | I |
| What one brave State hath done can ye not also do | I |
