Ecclesiastical Sonnets - Part Iii. - Xxx - Forms Of Prayer At Sea Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACACADEEDFF| To kneeling Worshipers no earthly floor | A |
| Gives holier invitation than the deck | B |
| Of a storm shattered Vessel saved from Wreck | B |
| When all that Man could do availed no more | A |
| By him who raised the Tempest and restrains | C |
| Happy the crew who this have felt and pour | A |
| Forth for his mercy as the Church ordains | C |
| Solemn thanksgiving Nor will 'they' implore | A |
| In vain who for a rightful cause give breath | D |
| To words the Church prescribes aiding the lip | E |
| For the heart's sake ere ship with hostile ship | E |
| Encounters armed for work of pain and death | D |
| Suppliants the God to whom your cause ye trust | F |
| Will listen and ye know that He is just | F |
