Sonnet V Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFDEF| A tide of beauty with returning May | A |
| Floods the fair city from warm pavements fume | B |
| Odors endeared down avenues in bloom | B |
| The chestnut trees with phallic spires are gay | A |
| Over the terrace flows the thronged cafe | A |
| The boulevards are streams of hurrying sound | C |
| And through the streets like veins when they abound | C |
| The lust for pleasure throbs itself away | A |
| Here let me live here let me still pursue | D |
| Phantoms of bliss that beckon and recede | E |
| Thy strange allurements City that I love | F |
| Maze of romance where I have followed too | D |
| The dream Youth treasures of its dearest need | E |
| And stars beyond thy towers bring tidings of | F |
