To A Fish Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABDA BBBBBBYou strange astonished looking angle faced | A |
Dreary mouthed gaping wretches of the sea | B |
Gulping salt water everlastingly | C |
Cold blooded though with red your blood be graced | A |
And mute though dwellers in the roaring waste | A |
And you all shapes beside that fishy be | B |
Some round some flat some long all devilry | D |
Legless unmoving infamously chaste | A |
- | |
O scaly slippery wet swift staring wights | B |
What is't ye do What life lead eh dull goggles | B |
How do ye vary your vile days and nights | B |
How pass your Sundays Are ye still but joggles | B |
In ceaseless wash Still naught but gapes and bites | B |
And drinks and stares diversified with boggles | B |
