Sonnet To The Hungarian Nation Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBCBAABDEFDDE

Not in sunk Spain's prolong'd death agonyA
Not in rich England bent but to make pourB
The flood of the world's commerce on her shoreB
Not in that madhouse France from whence the cryC
Afflicts grave Heaven with its long senseless roarB
Not in American vulgarityA
Nor wordy German imbecilityA
Lies any hope of heroism moreB
Hungarians Save the world Renew the storiesD
Of men who against hope repell'd the chainE
And make the world's dead spirit leap againF
On land renew that Greek exploit whose gloriesD
Hallow the Salaminian promontoriesD
And the Armada flung to the fierce mainE

Matthew Arnold
