Sonnet X. To Honora Sneyd Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBDEBEBEB F| HONORA shou'd that cruel time arrive | A |
| When 'gainst my truth thou should'st my errors poize | B |
| Scorning remembrance of our vanish'd joys | B |
| When for the love warm looks in which I live | A |
| But cold respect must greet me that shall give | C |
| No tender glance no kind regretful sighs | B |
| When thou shalt pass me with averted eyes | B |
| Feigning thou see'st me not to sting and grieve | D |
| And sicken my sad heart I cou'd not bear | E |
| Such dire eclipse of thy soul cheering rays | B |
| I cou'd not learn my struggling heart to tear | E |
| From thy lov'd form that thro' my memory strays | B |
| Nor in the pale horizon of Despair | E |
| Endure the wintry and the darken'd days | B |
