Ultima Thule: The Tide Rises, The Tide Falls Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBA AACCA AADDA| The tide rises the tide falls | A |
| The twilight darkens the curlew calls | A |
| Along the sea sands damp and brown | B |
| The traveller hastens toward the town | B |
| And the tide rises the tide falls | A |
| - | |
| Darkness settles on roofs and walls | A |
| But the sea the sea in the darkness calls | A |
| The little waves with their soft white hands | C |
| Efface the footprints in the sands | C |
| And the tide rises the tide falls | A |
| - | |
| The morning breaks the steeds in their stalls | A |
| Stamp and neigh as the hostler calls | A |
| The day returns but nevermore | D |
| Returns the traveller to the shore | D |
| And the tide rises the tide falls | A |
