A Rustic Seat Near The Sea Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDDEFFGHHIIJJFF| To him who many a night upon the main | A |
| At mid watch from the bounding vessel's side | B |
| Shivering has listened to the rocking tide | B |
| Oh how delightful smile thy views again | C |
| Fair Land the sheltered hut and far seen mill | D |
| That safe sails round and round the tripping rill | D |
| That o'er the gray sand glitters the clear sky | E |
| Beneath whose blue vault shines the village tower | F |
| That high elms swaying in the wind embower | F |
| And hedge rows where the small birds' melody | G |
| Solace the lithe and loitering peasant lad | H |
| O Stranger is thy pausing fancy sad | H |
| At thought of many evils which do press | I |
| On wide humanity Look up address | I |
| The GOD who made the world but let thy heart | J |
| Be thankful though some heavy thoughts have part | J |
| That sheltered from the human storms' career | F |
| Thou meetest innocence and quiet here | F |
