Sonnet Xxxviii. Winter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCABBDEFEGEF H| If he whose bosom with no transport swells | A |
| In vernal airs and hours commits the crime | B |
| Of sullenness to Nature 'gainst the Time | B |
| And its great RULER he alike rebels | C |
| Who seriousness and pious dread repels | A |
| And aweless gazes on the faded Clime | B |
| Dim in the gloom and pale in the hoar rime | B |
| That o'er the bleak and dreary prospect steals | D |
| Spring claims our tender grateful gay delight | E |
| Winter our sympathy and sacred fear | F |
| And sure the Hearts that pay not Pity's rite | E |
| O'er wide calamity that careless hear | G |
| Creation's wail neglect amid her blight | E |
| THE SOLEMN LESSON OF THE RUIN'D YEAR | F |
