Impression Du Voyage Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCDDDEEDD| THE sea was sapphire coloured and the sky | A |
| Burned like a heated opal through the air | B |
| We hoisted sail the wind was blowing fair | B |
| For the blue lands that to the eastward lie | A |
| From the steep prow I marked with quickening eye | A |
| Zakynthos every olive grove and creek | C |
| Ithaca's cliff Lycaon's snowy peak | C |
| And all the flower strewn hills of Arcady | D |
| The flapping of the sail against the mast | D |
| The ripple of the water on the side | D |
| The ripple of girls' laughter at the stern | E |
| The only sounds when 'gan the West to burn | E |
| And a red sun upon the seas to ride | D |
| I stood upon the soil of Greece at last | D |
