The Inlander Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCB BDEED FGEEG HBIIB| I never climb a high hill | A |
| Or gaze across the lea | B |
| But Oh beyond the two of them | C |
| Beyond the height and blue of them | C |
| I'm looking for the sea | B |
| - | |
| A blue sea a crooning sea | B |
| A grey sea lashed with foam | D |
| But Oh to take the drift of it | E |
| To know the surge and lift of it | E |
| And 'tis I am longing for it as the homeless long for home | D |
| - | |
| I never dream at night time | F |
| Or close my eyes by day | G |
| But there I have the might of it | E |
| The wind whipped sun drenched sight of it | E |
| That calls my soul away | G |
| - | |
| Oh deep dreams and happy dreams | H |
| Its dreaming still I'd be | B |
| For still the land I'm waking in | I |
| 'Tis that my heart is breaking in | I |
| And 'tis far where I'd be sleeping with the blue waves over me | B |
