Sonnets: Idea I Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFEFGHIHJJ| Like an adventurous sea farer am I | A |
| Who hath some long and dang'rous voyage been | B |
| And called to tell of his discovery | C |
| How far he sailed what countries he had seen | D |
| Proceeding from the port whence he put forth | E |
| Shows by his compass how his course he steered | F |
| When east when west when south and when by north | E |
| As how the pole to every place was reared | F |
| What capes he doubled of what continent | G |
| The gulfs and straits that strangely he had past | H |
| Where most becalmed where with foul weather spent | I |
| And on what rocks in peril to be cast | H |
| Thus in my love time calls me to relate | J |
| My tedious travels and oft varying fate | J |
