The Anvil Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD EFEGF

England's on the anvil hear the hammers ringA
Clanging from the Severn to the TyneB
Never was a blacksmith like our Norman KingA
England's being hammered hammered hammered into lineB
-
England's on the anvil Heavy are the blowsC
But the work will be a marvel when it's doneD
Little bits of Kingdoms cannot stand against their foesC
England's being hammered hammered hammered into oneD
-
There shall be one people it shall serve one LordE
Neither Prist nor Baron shall escapeF
It shall have one speech and law soul and strength and swordE
England's being hammered hammered hammered intoG
shapeF
