Chrysaor Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB ABAB CCDC ACAC| Just above yon sandy bar | A |
| As the day grows fainter and dimmer | B |
| Lonely and lovely a single star | A |
| Lights the air with a dusky glimmer | B |
| - | |
| Into the ocean faint and far | A |
| Falls the trail of its golden splendor | B |
| And the gleam of that single star | A |
| Is ever refulgent soft and tender | B |
| - | |
| Chrysaor rising out of the sea | C |
| Showed thus glorious and thus emulous | C |
| Leaving the arms of Callirrhoe | D |
| Forever tender soft and tremulous | C |
| - | |
| Thus o'er the ocean faint and far | A |
| Trailed the gleam of his falchion brightly | C |
| Is it a God or is it a star | A |
| That entranced I gaze on nightly | C |
