Hoffer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD

OF mortal parents is the Hero bornA
By whom the undaunted Tyrolese are ledB
Or is it Tell's great Spirit from the deadB
Returned to animate an age forlornA
He comes like Phoebus through the gates of mornA
When dreary darkness is discomfitedB
Yet mark his modest state upon his headB
That simple crest a heron's plume is wornA
O Liberty they stagger at the shockC
From van to rear and with one mind would fleeD
But half their host is buried rock on rockC
Descends beneath this godlike Warrior seeD
Hills torrents woods embodied to bemockC
The Tyrant and confound his crueltyD

William Wordsworth
