Libertatis Sacra Fames Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDAEFEGGF| Albeit nurtured in democracy | A |
| And liking best that state republican | B |
| Where every man is Kinglike and no man | C |
| Is crowned above his fellows yet I see | A |
| Spite of this modern fret for Liberty | A |
| Better the rule of One whom all obey | D |
| Than to let clamorous demagogues betray | D |
| Our freedom with the kiss of anarchy | A |
| Wherefore I love them not whose hands profane | E |
| Plant the red flag upon the piled up street | F |
| For no right cause beneath whose ignorant reign | E |
| Arts Culture Reverence Honour all things fade | G |
| Save Treason and the dagger of her trade | G |
| Or Murder with his silent bloody feet | F |
