By The Summer Sea Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDECDE| Sunlight and shrill cicada and the low | A |
| Slow sleepy kissing of the sea and shore | B |
| And rumor of the wind The morning wore | B |
| A sullen face of fog that lifted slow | A |
| Letting her eyes gleam through of grayest glow | A |
| Wearing a look like that which once she wore | B |
| When Gloucesterward from Dogtown there they bore | B |
| Some old witchwife with many a gibe and blow | A |
| But now the day has put off every care | C |
| And sits at peace beside the smiling sea | D |
| Dreaming bright dreams with lazy lidded eyes | E |
| One is a castle precipiced in air | C |
| And one a golden galleons can it be | D |
| 'Tis but the cloudworld of the sunset skies | E |
