The Isle Of Portland Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDCD AEAF| The star filled seas are smooth tonight | A |
| From France to England strown | B |
| Black towers above Portland light | A |
| The felon quarried stone | B |
| - | |
| On yonder island not to rise | C |
| Never to stir forth free | D |
| Far from his folk a dead lad lies | C |
| That once was friends with me | D |
| - | |
| Lie you easy dream you light | A |
| And sleep you fast for aye | E |
| And luckier may you find the night | A |
| Than you ever found the day | F |
