Waverley Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCCBBCCD EFEGEFA | |
- | |
- | |
When on a novel's newly printed page | B |
We find a maudlin eulogy of sin | C |
And read of ways that harlots wander in | C |
And of sick souls that writhe in helpless rage | B |
Or when Romance bespectacled and sage | B |
Taps on her desk and bids the class begin | C |
To con the problems that have always been | C |
Perplexed mankind's unhappy heritage | D |
- | |
Then in what robes of honor habited | E |
The laureled wizard of the North appears | F |
Who raised Prince Charlie's cohorts from the dead | E |
Made Rose's mirth and Flora's noble tears | G |
And formed that shining legion at whose head | E |
Rides Waverley triumphant o'er the years | F |
