Sonnet Xxxvii. Autumn Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDEE F| Thro' changing Months a well attemper'd Mind | A |
| Welcomes their gentle or terrific pace | B |
| When o'er retreating Autumn's golden grace | B |
| Tempestuous Winter spreads in every wind | A |
| Naked asperity our musings find | A |
| Grandeur increasing as the Glooms efface | B |
| Variety and glow Each solemn trace | B |
| Exalts the thoughts from sensual joys refin'd | A |
| Then blended in our rapt ideas rise | C |
| The vanish'd charms that summer suns reveal | D |
| With all of desolation that now lies | C |
| Dreary before us teach the Soul to feel | D |
| Awe in the Present pleasure in the Past | E |
| And to see vernal Morns in Hope's perspective cast | E |
