Upon The Same Event Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEFGHGI| WHEN far and wide swift as the beams of morn | A |
| The tidings past of servitude repealed | B |
| And of that joy which shook the Isthmian Field | B |
| The rough Aetolians smiled with bitter scorn | A |
| ''Tis known ' cried they 'that he who would adorn | A |
| His envied temples with the Isthmian crown | C |
| Must either win through effort of his own | D |
| The prize or be content to see it worn | A |
| By more deserving brows Yet so ye prop | E |
| Sons of the brave who fought at Marathon | F |
| Your feeble spirits Greece her head hath bowed | G |
| As if the wreath of liberty thereon | H |
| Would fix itself as smoothly as a cloud | G |
| Which at Jove's will descends on Pelion's top ' | I |
