Sonnet Xxxvi. Summer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAABACDEEDAA F| Now on hills rocks and streams and vales and plains | A |
| Full looks the shining Day Our gardens wear | B |
| The gorgeous robes of the consummate Year | C |
| With laugh and shout and song stout Maids and Swains | A |
| Heap high the fragrant hay as thro' rough lanes | A |
| Rings the yet empty waggon See in air | B |
| The pendent cherries red with tempting stains | A |
| Gleam thro' their boughs Summer thy bright career | C |
| Must slacken soon in Autumn's milder sway | D |
| Then thy now heapt and jocund meads shall stand | E |
| Smooth vacant silent thro' th' exulting Land | E |
| As wave thy Rival's golden fields and gay | D |
| Her Reapers throng She smiles and binds the sheaves | A |
| Then bends her parting step o'er fall'n and rustling leaves | A |
