At The Unitarian Festival Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: A BCBCDEDEDFDF

MARCHA
-
THE waves unbuild the wasting shoreB
Where mountains towered the billows sweepC
Yet still their borrowed spoils restoreB
And build new empires from the deepC
So while the floods of thought lay wasteD
The proud domain of priestly creedsE
Its heaven appointed tides will hasteD
To plant new homes for human needsE
Be ours to mark with hearts unchilledD
The change an outworn church deploresF
The legend sinks but Faith shall buildD
A fairer throne on new found shoresF

Oliver Wendell Holmes
