A Prophecy. February 1807 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFDDF| HIGH deeds O Germans are to come from you | A |
| Thus in your books the record shall be found | B |
| 'A watchword was pronounced a potent sound | B |
| ARMINIUS all the people quaked like dew | A |
| Stirred by the breeze they rose a Nation true | A |
| True to herself the mighty Germany | C |
| She of the Danube and the Northern Sea | C |
| She rose and off at once the yoke she threw | A |
| All power was given her in the dreadful trance | D |
| Those new born Kings she withered like a flame ' | E |
| Woe to them all but heaviest woe and shame | F |
| To that Bavarian who could first advance | D |
| His banner in accursed league with France | D |
| First open traitor to the German name | F |
