By The Pacific Ocean Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADD EFFEGG HAAHDD| Here room and kingly silence keep | A |
| Companionship in state austere | B |
| The dignity of death is here | C |
| The large lone vastness of the deep | A |
| Here toil has pitched his camp to rest | D |
| The west is banked against the west | D |
| - | |
| Above yon gleaming skies of gold | E |
| One lone imperial peak is seen | F |
| While gathered at his feet in green | F |
| Ten thousand foresters are told | E |
| And all so still so still the air | G |
| That duty drops the web of care | G |
| - | |
| Beneath the sunset's golden sheaves | H |
| The awful deep walks with the deep | A |
| Where silent sea doves slip and sweep | A |
| And commerce keeps her loom and weaves | H |
| The dead red men refuse to rest | D |
| Their ghosts illume my lurid West | D |
