The Oak Of Guernica Supposed Address To The Same Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCACDDEEC

OAK of Guernica Tree of holier powerA
Than that which in Dodona did enshrineB
So faith too fondly deemed a voice divineB
Heard from the depths of its aerial bowerA
How canst thou flourish at this blighting hourA
What hope what joy can sunshine bring to theeC
Or the soft breezes from the Atlantic seaC
The dews of morn or April's tender showerA
Stroke merciful and welcome would that beC
Which should extend thy branches on the groundD
If never more within their shady roundD
Those lofty minded Lawgivers shall meetE
Peasant and lord in their appointed seatE
Guardians of Biscay's ancient libertyC

William Wordsworth
