Glory Of Women Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGHFG| You love us when we're heroes home on leave | A |
| Or wounded in a mentionable place | B |
| You worship decorations you believe | A |
| That chivalry redeems the war's disgrace | B |
| You make us shells You listen with delight | C |
| By tales of dirt and danger fondly thrilled | D |
| You crown our distant ardours while we fight | C |
| And mourn our laurelled memories when we're killed | D |
| You can't believe that British troops retire | E |
| When hell's last horror breaks them and they run | F |
| Trampling the terrible corpses blind with blood | G |
| O German mother dreaming by the fire | H |
| While you are knitting socks to send your son | F |
| His face is trodden deeper in the mud | G |
