Milton Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| I pace the sounding sea beach and behold | A |
| How the voluminous billows roll and run | B |
| Upheaving and subsiding while the sun | B |
| Shines through their sheeted emerald far unrolled | A |
| And the ninth wave slow gathering fold by fold | A |
| All its loose flowing garments into one | B |
| Plunges upon the shore and floods the dun | B |
| Pale reach of sands and changes them to gold | A |
| So in majestic cadence rise and fall | C |
| The mighty undulations of thy song | D |
| O sightless bard England's M onides | E |
| And ever and anon high over all | C |
| Uplifted a ninth wave superb and strong | D |
| Floods all the soul with its melodious seas | E |
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
