The Sea And The Skylark Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDC DCDOn ear and ear two noises too old to end | A |
Trench right the tide that ramps against the shore | B |
With a flood or a fall low lull off or all roar | B |
Frequenting there while moon shall wear and wend | A |
Left hand off land I hear the lark ascend | A |
His rash fresh re winded new skein egrave d score | B |
In crisps of curl off wild winch whirl and pour | B |
And pelt music till none 's to spill nor spend | A |
- | |
How these two shame this shallow and frail town | C |
How ring right out our sordid turbid time | D |
Being pure We life's pride and cared for crown | C |
- | |
Have lost that cheer and charm of earth's past prime | D |
Our make and making break are breaking down | C |
To man's last dust drain fast towards man's first slime | D |
