The Germans On The Heighs Of Hochheim Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDAEFGFEFABRUPTLY paused the strife the field throughout | A |
Resting upon his arms each warrior stood | B |
Checked in the very act and deed of blood | C |
With breath suspended like a listening scout | A |
O Silence thou wert mother of a shout | A |
That through the texture of yon azure dome | D |
Cleaves its glad way a cry of harvest home | D |
Uttered to Heaven in ecstasy devout | A |
The barrier Rhine hath flashed through battle smoke | E |
On men who gaze heart smitten by the view | F |
As if all Germany had felt the shock | G |
Fly wretched Gauls ere they the charge renew | F |
Who have seen themselves now casting off the yoke | E |
The unconquerable Stream his course pursue | F |
