What If Our Numbers Barely Could Defy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDABBAEFFEGG

What if our numbers barely could defyA
The arithmetic of babes must foreign hordesB
Slaves vile as ever were befooled by wordsC
Striking through English breasts the anarchyD
Of Terror bear us to the ground and tieA
Our hands behind our backs with felon cordsB
Yields every thing to discipline of swordsB
Is man as good as man none low none highA
Nor discipline nor valour can withstandE
The shock nor quell the inevitable routF
When in some great extremity breaks outF
A people on their own beloved LandE
Risen like one man to combat in the sightG
Of a just God for liberty and rightG

William Wordsworth
