The Bridge Between Clifton And Leigh Woods Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABBAACDCDED| Frown ever opposite the angel cried | A |
| Who with an earthquake's might and giant hand | B |
| Severed these riven rocks and bade them stand | B |
| Severed for ever The vast ocean tide | A |
| Leaving its roar without at his command | B |
| Shrank and beneath the woods through the green land | B |
| Went gently murmuring on so to deride | A |
| The frowning barriers that its force defied | A |
| But Art high o'er the trailing smoke below | C |
| Of sea bound steamer on yon summit's head | D |
| Sat musing and where scarce a wandering crow | C |
| Sailed o'er the chasm in thought a highway led | D |
| Conquering as by an arrow from a bow | E |
| The scene's lone Genius by her elfin thread | D |
