Sonnet To Ocean.[1] Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDAEFEFEF| Shall I rebuke thee Ocean my old love | A |
| That once in rage with the wild winds at strife | B |
| Thou darest menace my unit of a life | B |
| Sending my clay below my soul above | A |
| Whilst roar'd thy waves like lions when they rove | C |
| By night and bound upon their prey by stealth | D |
| Yet didst thou n'er restore my fainting health | D |
| Didst thou ne'er murmur gently like the dove | A |
| Nay dost thou not against my own dear shore | E |
| Full break last link between my land and me | F |
| My absent friends talk in thy very roar | E |
| In thy waves' beat their kindly pulse I see | F |
| And if I must not see my England more | E |
| Next to her soil my grave be found in thee | F |
