Sonnet Xciii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADBEDFGHGFH I| Yon soft Star peering o'er the sable cloud | A |
| Sheds its green lustre thro' the darksome air | B |
| Haply in that mild Planet's crystal sphere | C |
| Live the freed Spirits o'er whose timeless shroud | A |
| Swell'd my lone sighs my tearful sorrows flow'd | D |
| They of these long regrets perhaps aware | B |
| View them with pitying smiles O then if e'er | E |
| Your guardian cares may be on me bestow'd | D |
| For the pure friendship of our youthful days | F |
| Ere yet ye soar'd from earth illume my heart | G |
| That roves bewilder'd in Dejection's night | H |
| And lead it back to peace as now ye dart | G |
| From your pellucid mansion the kind rays | F |
| That thro' misleading darkness stream so bright | H |
| - | |
| The lustre of the brightest of the Stars always appeared to me of a green hue and they are so described by Ossian | I |
