Outward Bound Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDAD EDDDED

Dear Earth near Earth the clay that made us menA
The land we sowedB
The hearth that glowedC
O Mother must we bid farewell to theeD
Fast dawns the last dawn and what shall comfort thenA
The lonely hearts that roam the outer seaD
-
Gray wakes the daybreak the shivering sails are setE
To misty deepsD
The channel sweepsD
O Mother think on us who think on theeD
Earth home birth home with love remember yetE
The sons in exile on the eternal seaD
