Milford Sound In Winter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACDAEFGHFGDark ocean walls majestically steep | A |
That dare the skies that guard a solitude | B |
Of straitened sea from every tempest rude | B |
That uncontrolled molests the outer deep | A |
White pinnacles where Summer suns will reap | A |
A silent store of clouds unloose the flood | C |
That captive long in Winter's hold hath stood | D |
And wake the mountain mosses from their sleep | A |
Dark walls white peaks unravished silences | E |
Grey sinuous lane of solitary sea | F |
Wild cataracts plunging fearless from the height | G |
And glaciers patient through the centuries | H |
O would that my revering soul might be | F |
Among your lonely shrines an eremite | G |
