O Navis Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDECFEPOOR bark of Life upon the billows hoarse | A |
Assailed by storms of envy and deceit | B |
Across what cruel seas in passage fleet | B |
My and sword alone direct thy course | A |
My pen is dull my sword of little force | A |
Thy side lies open to the wild waves' beat | B |
As out from Favor's harbors we retreat | B |
Pursued by hopes deceived and vain remorse | A |
- | |
Let heaven by star to guide thee here below | C |
How vain the joys that foolish hearts desire | D |
Here friendship dies and enmity keeps true | E |
Here happy days have left thee long ago | C |
But seek not port brave thou the tempest's ire | F |
Until the end thy fated course pursue | E |
