Lord Kitchner Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDDEEDUnflinching hero watchful to foresee | A |
And face thy country's peril wheresoe'er | B |
Directing war and peace with equal care | B |
Till by long toil ennobled thou wert he | A |
Whom England call'd and bade Set my arm free | A |
To obey my will and save my honour fair | B |
What day the foe presumed on her despair | B |
And she herself had trust in none but thee | A |
- | |
Among Herculean deeds the miracle | C |
That mass'd the labour of ten years in one | D |
Shall be thy monument Thy work was done | D |
Ere we could thank thee and the high sea swell | E |
Surgeth unheeding where thy proud ship fell | E |
By the lone Orkneys at the set of sun | D |
