Before The Dawn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DECE FGHG

Blacker the night grows ere the dawn be risenA
Keener the cost and fiercer yet the fightB
But hark above the thunder and the terrorC
A trumpet blowing splendid through the nightB
-
It is the challenge of our dead undyingD
Calling Remember We have died for youE
It is the cry of perilled earth's hereafterC
Sons of our sons Be glorious Be trueE
-
Now in the hour when either world is witnessF
Never or now shall we be proven greatG
Rise to the height of all our strain and storyH
Aye and beyond For we ourselves are FateG
