Odysseus' Fate Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKLThrough horrors of land and horrors of sea | A |
Bereft and wandering Odysseus | B |
God fearing wretch sought Ithaca | C |
Unfaltering he plunged into the gloom of Hades | D |
The roar of fierce Charybdis and underwater Scylla's groans | E |
Shook not his noble soul | F |
His patience vanquished cruel fate it seemed | G |
And to the dregs he'd drunk the bitter cup | H |
It seemed the heav'ns were done with testing him | I |
And drove him softly slumbering | J |
To homeland's longed for cliffs | K |
He waked what then He did not know his home | L |
