Sonnet Lxx. To A Young Lady In Affliction, Who Fancied She Should Never More Be Happy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABABACACACA| Yes thou shalt smile again Time always heals | A |
| In youth the wounds of Sorrow O survey | B |
| Yon now subsided Deep thro' Night a prey | B |
| To warring Winds and to their furious peals | A |
| Surging tumultuous yet as in dismay | B |
| The settling Billows tremble Morning steals | A |
| Grey on the rocks and soon to pour the day | B |
| From the streak'd east the radiant Orb unveils | A |
| In all his pride of light Thus shall the glow | C |
| Of beauty health and hope by soft degrees | A |
| Spread o'er thy breast disperse these storms of woe | C |
| Wake with sweet pleasure's sense the wish to please | A |
| Till from those eyes the wonted lustres flow | C |
| Bright as the Sun on calm'd and crystal Seas | A |
