Sonnet Lxxii. Written In The Rainy Summer Of 1789 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABBAACDCDEE| Ah hapless JUNE circles yon lunar Sphere | A |
| Yet the dim Halo whose cold powers ordain | B |
| Long o'er these vales shou'd sweep in misty train | B |
| The pale continuous showers that sullying smear | A |
| Thy radiant lilies towering on the plain | B |
| Bend low with rivel'd leaves of canker'd stain | B |
| Thy drench'd and heavy rose Yet pledg'd and dear | A |
| Fair Hope still holds the promise of the Year | A |
| Suspends her anchor on the silver horn | C |
| Of the next wexing Orb tho' JUNE thy Day | D |
| Robb'd of its golden eve and rosy morn | C |
| And gloomy as the Winter's rigid sway | D |
| Leads sunless lingering disappointing Hours | E |
| Thro' the song silent glades and dropping bowers | E |
