Huge Vapours Brood Above The Clifted Shore Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEFGFGHH| Huge vapours brood above the clifted shore | A |
| Night o'er the ocean settles dark and mute | B |
| Save where is heard the repercussive roar | A |
| Of drowsy billows on the rugged foot | C |
| Of rocks remote or still more distant tone | D |
| Of seamen in the anchored bark that tell | E |
| The watch relieved or one deep voice alone | D |
| Singing the hour and bidding strike the bell | E |
| All is black shadow but the lucid line | F |
| Marked by the light surf on the level sand | G |
| Or where afar the ship lights faintly shine | F |
| Like wandering fairy fires that oft on land | G |
| Mislead the pilgrim such the dubious ray | H |
| That wavering reason lends in life's long darkling way | H |
