Marching Men Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABB CCDD EEFF| Under the level winter sky | A |
| I saw a thousand Christs go by | A |
| They sang an idle song and free | B |
| As they went up to calvary | B |
| - | |
| Careless of eye and coarse of lip | C |
| They marched in holiest fellowship | C |
| That heaven might heal the world they gave | D |
| Their earth born dreams to deck the grave | D |
| - | |
| With souls unpurged and steadfast breath | E |
| They supped the sacrament of death | E |
| And for each one far off apart | F |
| Seven swords have rent a woman's heart | F |
