Lord Wellington And The Ministers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCDSo gently in peace Alcibiades smiled | A |
While in battle he shone forth so terribly grand | B |
That the emblem they graved on his seal was a child | A |
With a thunderbolt placed in its innocent hand | B |
- | |
Oh Wellington long as such Ministers wield | C |
Your magnificent arm the same emblem will do | D |
For while they're in the Council and you in the Field | C |
We've the babies in them and the thunder in you | D |
