Sonnet -- The Mariner Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDED FCFGHI

THE SEA BEAT MARINER whose watchful eyeA
Full many a boist'rous night hath wak'd to weepB
When the keen blast descending from the skyA
Snatch'd his warm tear drop from the rav'nous deepB
-
Drench'd by the chilling rain his dreary hourC
Creeps slowly onward to the dawn of dayD
Till burning PHOEBUS darting thro' the show'rE
Warms with his golden beam the frothy sprayD
-
With lightning's swiftness he ascends the mastF
And cries another tedious night is o'erC
He spreads the swelling sail he sees at lastF
His darling MISTRESS and his NATIVE SHOREG
The restless wand'rer then forgets past painH
Steals a fond kiss and BRAVES HIS FATE AGAINI
