"the Highlands," Annisquam Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABBADEFDEGHere from the heights among the rocks and pines | A |
The sea and shore seem some tremendous page | B |
Of some vast book great with our heritage | C |
Breathing the splendor of majestic lines | A |
Yonder the dunes speak silver yonder shines | A |
The ocean's sapphire word there gray with age | B |
The granite writes its lesson strong and sage | B |
And there the surf its rhythmic passage signs | A |
The winds that sweep the page that interlude | D |
Its majesty with music and the tides | E |
That roll their thunder in that period | F |
Its mighty rhetoric deep and dream imbued | D |
Are what it seems to say of what abides | E |
Of what's eternal and of what is God | G |
