The Fisher Of The Cape Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDAACC EEAAAAFFAAAt morn his bark like a bird | A |
Slips lightly oceanward | A |
Sail feathering smooth o'er the bay | B |
And beak that drinks the wild spray | B |
In his eyes beams cheerily | C |
A light like the sun's on the sea | D |
As he watches the waning strand | A |
Where the foam like a waving hand | A |
Of one who mutely would tell | C |
Her love flutters faintly Farewell | C |
- | |
But at night when the winds arise | E |
And pipe to driving skies | E |
And the moon peers half afraid | A |
Through the storm cloud's ragged shade | A |
He hears her voice in the blast | A |
That sighs about the mast | A |
He sees her face in the clouds | F |
As he climbs the whistling shrouds | F |
And a power nerves his hand | A |
Shall bring the bark to land | A |
