Homer's Hymn To Minerva Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: AABCDDEFGGHHGFIIJJFF

I sing the glorious Power with azure eyesA
Athenian Pallas tameless chaste and wiseA
Tritogenia town preserving MaidB
Revered and mighty from his awful headC
Whom Jove brought forth in warlike armour dressedD
Golden all radiant wonder strange possessedD
The everlasting Gods that Shape to seeE
Shaking a javelin keen impetuouslyF
Rush from the crest of Aegis bearing JoveG
Fearfully Heaven was shaken and did moveG
Beneath the might of the Cerulean eyedH
Earth dreadfully resounded far and wideH
And lifted from its depths the sea swelled highG
In purple billows the tide suddenlyF
Stood still and great Hyperion s son long timeI
Checked his swift steeds till where she stood sublimeI
Pallas from her immortal shoulders threwJ
The arms divine wise Jove rejoiced to viewJ
Child of the Aegis bearer hail to theeF
Nor thine nor others praise shall unremembered beF

Percy Bysshe Shelley
