Sonnet Xxvi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBADEDEFG| O partial MEMORY Years that fled too fast | A |
| From thee in more than pristine beauty rise | B |
| Forgotten all the transient tears and sighs | B |
| Somewhat that dimm'd their brightness Thou hast chas'd | C |
| Each hovering mist from the soft Suns that grac'd | C |
| Our fresh gay morn of Youth the Heart's high prize | B |
| Friendship and all that charm'd us in the eyes | B |
| Of yet unutter'd Love So pleasures past | A |
| That in thy crystal prism thus glow sublime | D |
| Beam on the gloom'd and disappointed Mind | E |
| When Youth and Health in the chill'd grasp of Time | D |
| Shudder and fade and cypress buds we find | E |
| Ordain'd Life's blighted roses to supply | F |
| While but reflected shine the golden lights of Joy | G |
