Dreams Of France Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| Oh dreams of France Oh faded dreams of France | A |
| Ohm France that I had ever dreamed of thee | B |
| I thought to help thee bear thy brandished lance | A |
| But lo I sail the blue Aegean sea | B |
| Sweet thought of thee sill stand before mine eyes | C |
| While I lie fettered in this stagnant cage | D |
| Unseen by me the golden Grecian skies | C |
| Forgotten is the Grecian Golden Age | D |
| Drear and dank this stale Ionian bark | E |
| That plods its path alone Aegean ways | F |
| Could I but see old Homer tall and dark | E |
| And hear the battle laughter of his lays | F |
| Farewell oh France Farewell thou tortured West | G |
| Bear strong thy shield above thine outraged breast | G |
