The Odyssey Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBBBBBCDEECD| As one that for a weary space has lain | A |
| Lull'd by the song of Circe and her wine | B |
| In gardens near the pale of Proserpine | B |
| Where that g an isle forgets the main | B |
| And only the low lutes of love complain | B |
| And only shadows of wan lovers pine | B |
| As such an one were glad to know the brine | B |
| Salt on his lips and the large air again | B |
| So gladly from the songs of modern speech | C |
| Men turn and see the stars and feel the free | D |
| Shrill wind beyond the close of heavy flowers | E |
| And through the music of the languid hours | E |
| They hear like Ocean on a western beach | C |
| The surge and thunder of the Odyssey | D |
