Spanish Air.--"ya Desperto." Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGFG| But ah if vain the patriot's zeal | A |
| If neither valor's force nor wisdom's light | B |
| Can break or melt that blood cemented seal | A |
| Which shuts so close the books of Europe's right | B |
| What song shall then in sadness tell | C |
| Of broken pride of prospects shaded | D |
| Of buried hopes remembered well | C |
| Of ardor quenched and honor faded | E |
| What muse shall mourn the breathless brave | F |
| In sweetest dirge at Memory's shrine | G |
| What harp shall sigh o'er Freedom's grave | F |
| Oh Erin Thine | G |
