Sonnet Xix. To - - Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBCDEDEDE| Farewell false Friend our scenes of kindness close | A |
| To cordial looks to sunny smiles farewell | B |
| To sweet consolings that can grief expel | B |
| And every joy soft sympathy bestows | C |
| For alter'd looks where truth no longer glows | C |
| Thou hast prepar'd my heart and it was well | B |
| To bid thy pen th' unlook'd for story tell | B |
| Falsehood avow'd that shame nor sorrow knows | C |
| O when we meet to meet we're destin'd try | D |
| To avoid it as thou may'st on either brow | E |
| Nor in the stealing consciousness of eye | D |
| Be seen the slightest trace of what or how | E |
| We once were to each other nor one sigh | D |
| Flatter with weak regret a broken vow | E |
