Sonnet Xii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEDEFF| Like as a dryad from her native bole | A |
| Coming at dusk when the dim stars emerge | B |
| To a slow river at whose silent verge | B |
| Tall poplars tremble and deep grasses roll | A |
| Come thou no less and kneeling in a shoal | A |
| Of the freaked flag and meadow buttercup | C |
| Bend till thine image from the pool beam up | C |
| Arched with blue heaven like an aureole | A |
| See how adorable in fancy then | D |
| Lives the fair face it mirrors even so | E |
| O thou whose beauty moving among men | D |
| Is like the wind's way on the woods below | E |
| Filling all nature where its pathway lies | F |
| With arms that supplicate and trembling sighs | F |
