Morning Song In The Jungle Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGH IJKJBLMK FNONPQRQ JSTSUKKKOne moment past our bodies cast | A |
No shadow on the plain | B |
Now clear and black they stride our track | C |
And we run home again | D |
In morning hush each rock and bush | E |
Stands hard and high and raw | F |
Then give the Call Good rest to all | G |
That keep the Jungle Law | H |
- | |
Now horn and pelt our peoples melt | I |
In covert to abide | J |
Now crouched and still to cave and hill | K |
Our Jungle Barons glide | J |
Now stark and plain Man's oxen strain | B |
That draw the new yoked plough | L |
Now stripped and dread the dawn is red | M |
Above the lit talao | K |
- | |
Ho Get to lair The sun's aflare | F |
Behind the breathing grass | N |
And creaking through the young bamboo | O |
The warning whispers pass | N |
By day made strange the woods we range | P |
With blinking eyes we scan | Q |
While down the skies the wild duck cries | R |
The Day the Day to Man | Q |
- | |
The dew is dried that drenched our hide | J |
Or washed about our way | S |
And where we drank the puddled bank | T |
Is crisping into clay | S |
The traitor Dark gives up each mark | U |
Of stretched or hooded claw | K |
Then hear the Call Good rest to all | K |
That keep the Jungle Law | K |
