The Russ At Kara Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDCE| O King of kings that watching from Thy throne | A |
| Sufferest the monster of Ust Kara's hold | B |
| With bosom than Siberia's wastes more cold | B |
| And hear'st the wail of captives crushed and prone | A |
| And sett'st no sign in heaven Shall naught atone | A |
| For their wild pangs whose tale is yet scarce told | B |
| Women by uttermost woe made deadly bold | B |
| In the far dungeon's night that hid their moan | A |
| Why waits Thy shattering arm nor smites this Power | C |
| Whose beak and talons rend the unshielded breast | D |
| Whose wings shed terror and a plague of gloom | E |
| Whose ravin is the hearts of the oppressed | D |
| Whose brood are hell births Hate that bides its hour | C |
| Wrath and a people's curse that loathe their doom | E |
