Tho' Lack Of Laurels Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACBDEFEGFG| Tho' lack of laurels and of wreaths not one | A |
| Prove you our lives abortive shall we yet | B |
| Vaunt us our single aim our hearts full set | B |
| To win the guerdon which is never won | A |
| Witness a purpose never is undone | A |
| And tho' fate drain our seas of violet | C |
| To gather round our lives her wide hung net | B |
| Memories of hopes that are not shall atone | D |
| Not wholly starless is the ill starred life | E |
| Not all is night in failure and the shield | F |
| Sometimes well grasped tho' shattered in the strife | E |
| And here while all the lowering heaven is ringed | G |
| With our loud death shouts echoed on the field | F |
| Stands forth our Nik proud tho' broken winged | G |
