Great Twin Brethren, The Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDCBDCCEFGFEGC| The battle will not cease | A |
| Till once again on those white steeds ye ride | B |
| O heaven descended Twins | C |
| Before humanity's bewildered host | D |
| Our javelins | C |
| Fly wide | B |
| And idle is our cannon's boast | D |
| Lead us triumphant Brethren Love and Peace | C |
| A fairer Golden Fleece | C |
| Our more adventurous Argo fain would seek | E |
| But save O Sons of Jove | F |
| Your blended light go with us vain employ | G |
| It were to rove | F |
| This bleak | E |
| Blind waste To unimagined joy | G |
| Guide us immortal Brethren Love and Peace | C |
