Sonnet To The Hungarian Nation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCBAABDEFDDENot in sunk Spain's prolong'd death agony | A |
Not in rich England bent but to make pour | B |
The flood of the world's commerce on her shore | B |
Not in that madhouse France from whence the cry | C |
Afflicts grave Heaven with its long senseless roar | B |
Not in American vulgarity | A |
Nor wordy German imbecility | A |
Lies any hope of heroism more | B |
Hungarians Save the world Renew the stories | D |
Of men who against hope repell'd the chain | E |
And make the world's dead spirit leap again | F |
On land renew that Greek exploit whose glories | D |
Hallow the Salaminian promontories | D |
And the Armada flung to the fierce main | E |
