Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEFE GHIH ABJBBreak break break | A |
On thy cold gray stones O Sea | B |
And I would that my tongue could utter | C |
The thoughts that arise in me | B |
- | |
O well for the fisherman's boy | D |
That he shouts with his sister at play | E |
O well for the sailor lad | F |
That he sings in his boat on the bay | E |
- | |
And the stately ships go on | G |
To their haven under the hill | H |
But O for the touch of a vanish'd hand | I |
And the sound of a voice that is still | H |
- | |
Break break break | A |
At the foot of thy crags O Sea | B |
But the tender grace of a day that is dead | J |
Will never come back to me | B |
Alfred Lord Tennyson
