Rhyme Scheme: A BCDC ECFC EGHHIA | |
- | |
Adrift A little boat adrift | B |
And night is coming down | C |
Will no one guide a little boat | D |
Unto the nearest town | C |
- | |
So Sailors say on yesterday | E |
Just as the dusk was brown | C |
One little boat gave up its strife | F |
And gurgled down and down | C |
- | |
So angels say on yesterday | E |
Just as the dawn was red | G |
One little boat o'erspent with gales | H |
Retrimmed its masts redecked its sails | H |
And shot exultant on | I |
