Above The Vales Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAAB CDCCD EFEEF GBGHB| We went by ways of bygone days | A |
| Up mountain heights of story | B |
| Where lost in vague historic haze | A |
| Tradition crowned with battle bays | A |
| Sat 'mid her ruins hoary | B |
| - | |
| Where wing to wing the eagles cling | C |
| And torrents have their sources | D |
| War rose with bugle voice to sing | C |
| Of wild spear thrust and broadsword swing | C |
| And rush of men and horses | D |
| - | |
| Then deep below where orchards show | E |
| A home here here a steeple | F |
| We heard a simple shepherd go | E |
| Singing beneath the afterglow | E |
| A love song of the people | F |
| - | |
| As in the trees the song did cease | G |
| With matron eyes and holy | B |
| Peace from the cornlands of increase | G |
| And rose beds of love's victories | H |
| Spake smiling of the lowly | B |
