Lowther Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCCBDBBDEELowther in thy majestic Pile are seen | A |
Cathedral pomp and grace in apt accord | B |
With the baronial castle's sterner mien | A |
Union significant of God adored | B |
And charters won and guarded by the sword | B |
Of ancient honour whence that goodly state | C |
Of polity which wise men venerate | C |
And will maintain if God his help afford | B |
Hourly the democratic torrent swells | D |
For airy promises and hopes suborned | B |
The strength of backward looking thoughts is scorned | B |
Fall if ye must ye Towers and Pinnacles | D |
With what ye symbolise authentic Story | E |
Will say Ye disappeared with England's Glory | E |
