Hail, Zaragoza! If With Unwet Eye Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCDEDEDDD| HAIL Zaragoza If with unwet eye | A |
| We can approach thy sorrow to behold | B |
| Yet is the heart not pitiless nor cold | B |
| Such spectacle demands not tear or sigh | A |
| These desolate remains are trophies high | A |
| Of more than martial courage in the breast | C |
| Of peaceful civic virtue they attest | C |
| Thy matchless worth to all posterity | D |
| Blood flowed before thy sight without remorse | E |
| Disease consumed thy vitals War upheaved | D |
| The ground beneath thee with volcanic force | E |
| Dread trials yet encountered and sustained | D |
| Till not a wreck of help or hope remained | D |
| And law was from necessity received | D |
