The Sea Of Time. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABCDEFEGGHHIJAAOn that strange sea | A |
Where Man's bark moves as toward eternity | A |
What sails put forth that are not seen again | B |
Joyous it may be or in pain | C |
The mariner doth drive still on and on | D |
Beneath no mortal star | E |
And to no mortal port as one | F |
Who may but anchor somewhere so afar | E |
Not himself recks if he shall reach no more | G |
In that tremendous sea another shore | G |
He is so like a wave himself at last | H |
He would toss through the future as the past | H |
But tethered as a whale is to a wave | I |
So he might still the one life have | J |
Through all the changes that may be | A |
On that tremendous sea | A |
