War Heel! Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDFGCGCCEC| Thrusters are steadying hounds at a loss | A |
| Checked at the stile leading into the lane | B |
| Feel for it forward and feather across | A |
| Keen to recover their quarry again | C |
| Horsemen sit silently watching the pack | D |
| Nothing is heard but the clinking of steel | E |
| Then a low whimper one hound running back | D |
| 'War' heel there 'War' heel ' | F |
| Life's but a heart stirring hunt at the best | G |
| Checked by old memories bid them begone | C |
| Fling to the front with a laugh and a jest | G |
| All that you seek for is for'ard and on | C |
| Never look backward and never repine | C |
| Keep with the pack as they scatter and wheel | E |
| Turn from the years that have trampled the line | C |

| 'War' heel there 'War' heel ' | - |
