Prefatory Sonnet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| Those that of late had fleeted far and fast | A |
| To touch all shores now leaving to the skill | B |
| Of others their old craft seaworthy still | B |
| Have charter'd this where mindful of the past | A |
| Our true co mates regather round the mast | A |
| Of diverse tongue but with a common will | B |
| Here in this roaring moon of daffodil | B |
| And crocus to put forth and brave the blast | A |
| For some descending from the sacred peak | C |
| Of hoar high templed Faith have leagued again | D |
| Their lot with ours to rove the world about | E |
| And some are wilder comrades sworn to seek | C |
| If any golden harbour be for men | D |
| In seas of Death and sunless gulfs of Doubt | E |
Alfred Lord Tennyson
