Sea Sunset Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDD EFEGBB HIHJKK LDLDDD| A gallant city has been builded far | A |
| In the pied heaven | B |
| Bannered with crimson sentinelled by star | A |
| Of crystal even | C |
| Around a harbor of the twilight glowing | D |
| With jubilant waves about its gateways flowing | D |
| - | |
| A city of the Land of Lost Delight | E |
| On seas enchanted | F |
| Presently to be lost in mist moon white | E |
| And music haunted | G |
| Given but briefly to our raptured vision | B |
| With all its opal towers and shrines elysian | B |
| - | |
| Had we some mystic boat with pearly oar | H |
| And wizard pilot | I |
| To guide us safely by the siren shore | H |
| And cloudy islet | J |
| We might embark and reach that shining portal | K |
| Beyond which linger dreams and joys immortal | K |
| - | |
| But we may only gaze with longing eyes | L |
| On those far sparkling | D |
| Palaces in the fairy peopled skies | L |
| O'er waters darkling | D |
| Until the winds of night come shoreward roaming | D |
| And the dim west has only gray and gloaming | D |
