Shane O-neill-s Cairn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFAGHIGJHIK| TO U J | A |
| When you and I on the Palos Verdes cliff | B |
| Found life more desperate than dear | C |
| And when we hawked at it on the lake by Seattle | D |
| In the west of the world where hardly | E |
| Anything has died yet we'd not have been sorry Una | F |
| But surprised to foresee this gray | A |
| Coast in our days the gray waters of the Moyle | G |
| Below us and under our feet | H |
| The heavy black stones of the cairn of the lord of Ulster | I |
| A man of blood who died bloodily | G |
| Four centuries ago but death's nothing and life | J |
| From a high death mark on a headland | H |
| Of this dim island of burials is nothing either | I |
| How beautiful are both these nothings | K |
