Fancy Dress Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABABBCCDDEESome Brave awake in you to night | A |
Knocked at your heart an eagle's flight | A |
Stirred in the feather on your head | B |
Your wide set Indian eyes alight | A |
Above high cheek bones smeared with red | B |
Unveiled cragg'd centuries and led | B |
You the snared wraith of bygone things | C |
Wild ancestries of trackless Kings | C |
Out of the past So men have felt | D |
Strange anger move them as they knelt | D |
Praying to gods serenely starred | E |
In heavens where tomahawks are barred | E |
