Sonnet Xii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCBDEDEDE A| Chill'd by unkind Honora's alter'd eye | A |
| Why droops my heart with fruitless woes forlorn | B |
| Thankless for much of good what thousands born | B |
| To ceaseless toil beneath this wintry sky | A |
| Or to brave deathful Oceans surging high | A |
| Or fell Disease's fever'd rage to mourn | B |
| How blest to them wou'd seem my destiny | C |
| How dear the comforts my rash sorrows scorn | B |
| Affection is repaid by causeless hate | D |
| A plighted love is chang'd to cold disdain | E |
| Yet suffer not thy wrongs to shroud thy fate | D |
| But turn my Soul to blessings which remain | E |
| And let this truth the wise resolve create | D |
| THE HEART ESTRANGED NO ANGUISH CAN REGAIN | E |
