Sonnet Xxxi: Far O'er The Waves Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD| Far o'er the waves my lofty Bark shall glide | A |
| Love's frequent sighs the flutt'ring sails shall swell | B |
| While to my native home I bid farewell | B |
| Hope's snowy hand the burnis'd helm shall guide | A |
| Triton's shall sport admidst the yielding tide | A |
| Myriads of Cupids round the prow shall dwell | B |
| And Venus thron'd within her opal shell | B |
| Shall proudly o'er the glitt'ring billows ride | A |
| Young Dolphins dashing in the golden spray | C |
| Shall with their scaly forms illume the deep | D |
| Ting'd with the purple flush of sinking day | C |
| Whose flaming wreath shall crown the distant steep | D |
| While on the breezy deck soft minstrels play | C |
| And songs of love the lover soothe to sleep | D |
