Again The Clash Is East Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCDEEFGFG| Again the clash is East the Gates are barred | A |
| The rolling echoes of of Troy arise | B |
| With trebled sound its weary threshold scarred | A |
| With scattered dead once more and wild with cries | B |
| - | |
| The noise that dinned when siting Hellas reeled | C |
| Before the brave defence of Hector s horde | D |
| The blows that burst on Agamemmnon s shield | C |
| Or echoed from Achilles threshing sword | D |
| Were weak and small Before this mighty blast | E |
| They seem the tinklings of a timid past | E |
| To day the Grecian arms are still and deep | F |
| Within the tomb those heroes deep in dust | G |
| The eyes of Attic honour closed with sleep | F |
| And wise Ulysses arrows red with rust | G |
