Starlight At Sea Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCADEAFEA| OVER the murmurous choral of dim waves | A |
| The constellations glow against the soft | B |
| Ethereal dusk forever fair aloft | C |
| Serene while man climbs painfully from caves | A |
| To cities clamorous cities life that raves | A |
| Like surf against the rocks It is not oft | C |
| Our cities glimpse the stars their luster scoffed | C |
| Away by low hard glitter that outbraves | A |
| Night's blessing of the dark But here upon | D |
| Mid ocean all whose muffled voices ring | E |
| A rapture lost to our vexed human wills | A |
| We see the primal radiance that shone | F |
| On chaos see the young God shepherding | E |
| His gleaming flocks on the empurpled hills | A |
