What If Our Numbers Barely Could Defy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDABBAEFFEGGWhat if our numbers barely could defy | A |
The arithmetic of babes must foreign hordes | B |
Slaves vile as ever were befooled by words | C |
Striking through English breasts the anarchy | D |
Of Terror bear us to the ground and tie | A |
Our hands behind our backs with felon cords | B |
Yields every thing to discipline of swords | B |
Is man as good as man none low none high | A |
Nor discipline nor valour can withstand | E |
The shock nor quell the inevitable rout | F |
When in some great extremity breaks out | F |
A people on their own beloved Land | E |
Risen like one man to combat in the sight | G |
Of a just God for liberty and right | G |
