The Rail Road Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGFGHH| Thou great proclaimer to the outward eye | A |
| Of what the spirit too would seek to tell | B |
| Onward thou go'st appointed from on high | A |
| The other warnings of the Lord to swell | B |
| Thou art the voice of one that through the world | C |
| Proclaims in startling tones 'Prepare the way ' | D |
| The lofty mountain from its seat is hurled | C |
| The flinty rocks thine onward march obey | E |
| The valleys lifted from their lowly bed | F |
| O'ertop the hills that on them frowned before | G |
| Thou passest where the living seldom tread | F |
| Through forests dark where tides beneath thee roar | G |
| And bid'st man's dwelling from thy track remove | H |
| And would with warning voice his crooked paths reprove | H |
