Ossian's Poems Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCADEFEGGHere I have heard on hills the battle clash | A |
Roar to the windy sea that roared again | B |
When drunk with wrath upon the clanking plain | C |
Barbaric kings did meet in war and dash | A |
Their mail d thousands down heard onset crash | A |
Like crags contending 'gainst the battering main | C |
Torrents of helms beaming like streams of rain | C |
Blue billowing 'neath the pale moon's fitful flash | A |
Saw the scared moon hang over the black wood | D |
Like a pale wreath of foam shields spears and swords | E |
Shoot green as meteors thro' the steely flood | F |
Or shine like ripples 'round their heathen lords | E |
Standing like stubborn rocks whence the wild wave | G |
Of war circled in steel and foamed out brave on brave | G |
