Easton's Beach Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC DEDE FGFGLAST night I saw a city by the sea | A |
Outlined in sparks of fire | B |
Those wreathed lamps made all a fantasy | A |
Arch dome and spire | C |
- | |
I saw above the waters pale and gray | D |
The pale moon stand | E |
I heard but faint and sweet and far away | D |
A martial band | E |

The distant voices in the streets the sound | F |
Of laughter from the towers | G |
Made where we swam the solitude profound | F |
The sea was ours | G |
