Jackson. A Sonnet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFFED| Thank God for such a Hero Fearless hold | A |
| His diamond character beneath the sun | B |
| And brighter scintillations one by one | B |
| Come flashing from it Never knight of old | A |
| Wore on serener brow so calm yet bold | A |
| Diviner courage never martyr knew | C |
| Trust more sublime nor patriot zeal more true | C |
| Nor saint self abnegation of a mould | A |
| Touched with profounder beauty All the rare | D |
| Clear starry points of light that gave his soul | E |
| Such lambent lustre owned but one sole aim | F |
| Not for himself nor yet his country's fame | F |
| These glories shone he kept the clustered whole | E |
| A jewel for the crown that Christ shall wear | D |
