Jerusalem: England! Awake! Awake! Awake! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFG HIJI

England awake awake awakeA
Jerusalem thy Sister callsB
Why wilt thou sleep the sleep of deathC
And close her from thy ancient wallsB
-
Thy hills and valleys felt her feetD
Gently upon their bosoms moveE
Thy gates beheld sweet Zion's waysF
Then was a time of joy and loveG
-
And now the time returns againH
Our souls exult and London's towersI
Receive the Lamb of God to dwellJ
In England's green and pleasant bowersI

William Blake
