A Burnt Ship Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACCOut of a fired ship which by no way | A |
But drowning could be rescued from the flame | B |
Some men leap'd forth and ever as they came | B |
Near the foes' ships did by their shot decay | A |
So all were lost which in the ship were found | C |
They in the sea being burnt they in the burnt ship drown'd | C |
