Voyages Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBD BBBEB FBBGH BBIJJ KJEIB| And yet this great wink of eternity | A |
| Of rimless floods unfettered leewardings | B |
| Samite sheeted and processioned where | C |
| Her undinal vast belly moonward bends | B |
| Laughing the wrapt inflections of our love | D |
| - | |
| Take this Sea whose diapason knells | B |
| On scrolls of silver snowy sentences | B |
| The sceptred terror of whose sessions rends | B |
| As her demeanors motion well or ill | E |
| All but the pieties of lovers' hands | B |
| - | |
| And onward as bells off San Salvador | F |
| Salute the crocus lustres of the stars | B |
| In these poinsettia meadows of her tides | B |
| Adagios of islands O my Prodigal | G |
| Complete the dark confessions her veins spell | H |
| - | |
| Mark how her turning shoulders wind the hours | B |
| And hasten while her penniless rich palms | B |
| Pass superscription of bent foam and wave | I |
| Hasten while they are true sleep death desire | J |
| Close round one instant in one floating flower | J |
| - | |
| Bind us in time O Seasons clear and awe | K |
| O minstrel galleons of Carib fire | J |
| Bequeath us to no earthly shore until | E |
| Is answered in the vortex of our grave | I |
| The seal's wide spindrift gaze toward paradise | B |
