Where Are You Poets? Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACDAEFGHEGFIJJWhere are you Poets that a Hero dies | A |
Unsung He who when Duty brought too soon | B |
His billet of rest toiled on till he had won | C |
The countersign of Glory There he lies | A |
And in the silence of your poesies | A |
He looks a Poem yea so made and done | C |
As if the Bardic Heavens had thrown him down | D |
In model to your making Close his eyes | A |
That yours may learn him To fulfil the Law | E |
In Gospel force the seeds of use to flower | F |
In Beauty to enman invisible Truth | G |
And then transfigure this is Poetry | H |
And this the World and his dear Country saw | E |
Hymned unawares in that unconquer'd youth | G |
Who scorning to give less than all his power | F |
Having bled for us then aspired to die | I |
And dying thus left one more pledge behind | J |
That England may again deserve to lead Mankind | J |
