Homeward Bound Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCAC DEEFDF| After long labouring in the windy ways | A |
| On smooth and shining tides | B |
| Swiftly the great ship glides | B |
| Her storms forgot her weary watches past | C |
| Northward she glides and through the enchanted haze | A |
| Faint on the verge her far hope dawns at last | C |
| - | |
| The phantom sky line of a shadowy down | D |
| Whose pale white cliffs below | E |
| Through sunny mist aglow | E |
| Like noon day ghosts of summer moonshine gleam | F |
| Soft as old sorrow bright as old renown | D |
| There lies the home of all our mortal dream | F |
