Hoffer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD| OF mortal parents is the Hero born | A |
| By whom the undaunted Tyrolese are led | B |
| Or is it Tell's great Spirit from the dead | B |
| Returned to animate an age forlorn | A |
| He comes like Phoebus through the gates of morn | A |
| When dreary darkness is discomfited | B |
| Yet mark his modest state upon his head | B |
| That simple crest a heron's plume is worn | A |
| O Liberty they stagger at the shock | C |
| From van to rear and with one mind would flee | D |
| But half their host is buried rock on rock | C |
| Descends beneath this godlike Warrior see | D |
| Hills torrents woods embodied to bemock | C |
| The Tyrant and confound his cruelty | D |
