The Soldier Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFGEHG| If I should die think only this of me | A |
| That there's some corner of a foreign field | B |
| That is for ever England There shall be | A |
| In that rich earth a richer dust concealed | B |
| A dust whom England bore shaped made aware | C |
| Gave once her flowers to love her ways to roam | D |
| A body of England's breathing English air | C |
| Washed by the rivers blest by suns of home | D |
| - | |
| And think this heart all evil shed away | E |
| A pulse in the eternal mind no less | F |
| Gives somewhere back the thoughts by England given | G |
| Her sights and sounds dreams happy as her day | E |
| And laughter learnt of friends and gentleness | H |
| In hearts at peace under an English heaven | G |
