The War Films Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCB DEDEFE GHGHGH

O living pictures of the deadA
O songs without a soundB
O fellowship whose phantom treadA
Hallows a phantom groundB
How in a gleam have these revealedC
The faith we had not foundB
-
We have sought God in a cloudy HeavenD
We have passed by God on earthE
His seven sins and his sorrows sevenD
His wayworn mood and mirthE
Like a ragged cloak have hid from usF
The secret of his birthE
-
Brother of men when now I seeG
The lads go forth in lineH
Thou knowest my heart is hungry in meG
As for thy bread and wineH
Thou knowest my heart is bowed in meG
To take their death for mineH
