Hint From The Mountains For Certain Political Pretenders Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDB EFEEEEEE A GHIHEEEH ACACJJJC| Who but hails the sight with pleasure | A |
| When the wings of genius rise | B |
| Their ability to measure | A |
| With great enterprise | B |
| But in man was ne'er such daring | C |
| As yon Hawk exhibits pairing | C |
| His brave spirit with the war in | D |
| The stormy skies | B |
| - | |
| Mark him how his power he uses | E |
| Lays it by at will resumes | F |
| Mark ere for his haunt he chooses | E |
| Clouds and utter glooms | E |
| There he wheels in downward mazes | E |
| Sunward now his flight he raises | E |
| Catches fire as seems and blazes | E |
| With uninjured plumes | E |
| - | |
| ANSWER | A |
| - | |
| Stranger 'tis no act of courage | G |
| Which aloft thou dost discern | H |
| No bold 'bird' gone forth to forage | I |
| 'Mid the tempest stern | H |
| But such mockery as the nations | E |
| See when public perturbations | E |
| Lift men from their native stations | E |
| Like yon TUFT OF FERN | H |
| - | |
| Such it is the aspiring creature | A |
| Soaring on undaunted wing | C |
| So you fancied is by nature | A |
| A dull helpless thing | C |
| Dry and withered light and yellow | J |
| 'That' to be the tempest's fellow | J |
| Wait and you shall see how hollow | J |
| Its endeavouring | C |
