The Aurora Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBADEFDEF| Night and the sea and heaven overhead | A |
| Cloudless and vast as 'twere of hollowed spar | B |
| Wherein the facets gleamed of many a star | B |
| And the half moon a crystal radiance shed | A |
| Then suddenly with burning banners spread | A |
| In pale celestial armour as for war | C |
| Into the heaven flaming from afar | B |
| The Northern Lights their phalanxed splendours led | A |
| Night for the moment seemed to catch her breath | D |
| And earth gazed silent with astonishment | E |
| As spear on spear the auroral armies came | F |
| As when triumphant over hell and death | D |
| The victor angels thronged God's firmament | E |
| With sword on sword and burning oriflamme | F |
