Queen Henrietta Maria Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A ABBCADDAEFGEHITo Ellen Terry | A |
- | |
In the lone tent waiting for victory | A |
She stands with eyes marred by the mists of pain | B |
Like some wan lily overdrenched with rain | B |
The clamorous clang of arms the ensanguined sky | C |
War's ruin and the wreck of chivalry | A |
To her proud soul no common fear can bring | D |
Bravely she tarrieth for her Lord the King | D |
Her soul a flame with passionate ecstasy | A |
O Hair of Gold O Crimson Lips O Face | E |
Made for the luring and the love of man | F |
With thee I do forget the toil and stress | G |
The loveless road that knows no resting place | E |
Time's straitened pulse the soul's dread weariness | H |
My freedom and my life republican | I |
