Despond Who Will, 'i' Heard A Voice Exclaim Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBAABDEFGED| Despond who will 'I' heard a voice exclaim | A |
| Though fierce the assault and shattered the defense | B |
| It cannot be that Britain's social frame | A |
| The glorious work of time and providence | C |
| Before a flying season's rash pretense | B |
| Should fall that She whose virtue put to shame | A |
| When Europe prostrate lay the Conqueror's aim | A |
| Should perish self subverted Black and dense | B |
| The cloud is but brings 'that' a day of doom | D |
| To Liberty Her sun is up the while | E |
| That orb whose beams round Saxon Alfred shone | F |
| Then laugh ye innocent Vales ye Streams sweep on | G |
| Nor let one billow of our heaven blest Isle | E |
| Toss in the fanning wind a humbler plume | D |
