The Immigrants Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCD EFEFEF| From lands where old abuses sit entrenched | A |
| And stern restriction thwarts aspiring merit | B |
| And by gaunt men a meagre dole is wrenched | A |
| From the unkind conditions they inherit | B |
| From teeming cities where the ceaseless moan | C |
| Of want is burthen to the traffic's hum | D |
| From shrouded mills and fields they ne'er might own | C |
| From servitude and blank despair they come | D |
| - | |
| And every ship that sails across the foam | E |
| And every train that rushes from the sea | F |
| And every sun that brightens heaven's dome | E |
| And every breeze that stirs the leafing tree | F |
| Sings to the pilgrims a glad song of home | E |
| With freedom joy and opportunity | F |
