Sonnet Xvii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGGNor wert thou only by thy kindred wept | A |
Young mother gentle daughter cherish'd wife | B |
Deep in her memory France hath fondly kept | A |
The records of thy unassuming life | B |
Oft shall the statue heroine bring to mind | C |
As pale it gleams beneath the light of day | D |
In all the thoughtful grace by thee design'd | C |
The worth and talent which have pass'd away | D |
Oft shall the old who see thy child pass by | E |
Smiling and glad despite his orphan'd lot | F |
Look on him with a blessing and a sigh | E |
As one who suffers loss yet feels it not | F |
But lifting up his innocent eyes in prayer | G |
Vaguely imagines Heaven foretaught that thou art THERE | G |
