Cedars Of Lebanon At Warwick Castle Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEDFCCEDARS of Lebanon Labyrinths of Shade | A |
Making a mystery of open day | B |
With layers of gloom keeping the Sun at bay | B |
And solemn boughs which never bloom or fade | A |
Contemporaries of that great Crusade | A |
When militant Christendom leaped up one day | B |
Fired by the Cross and rushing to the fray | B |
Poured Eastward as oracular Peter bade | A |
- | |
Borne hither when Christ's Sepulchre was won | C |
And planted by hoar Warwick's feudal walls | D |
You grew o'ershadowing every rival stem | E |
When English woods don May's fresh coronals | D |
Say Mourn ye still lost Jerusalem | F |
Funeral trees beloved of Lebanon | C |
