Sonnet: - X Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDDCEEFFGG| Poor snail that toilest at my weary feet | A |
| Thou too must have thy burden Life is sweet | A |
| If we would make it so How vast a load | B |
| To carry all its days along the road | B |
| Of its serene existence Christian like | C |
| It toils with patience seeking sweet repose | D |
| Within itself when wearied with the throes | D |
| Of its life struggle The low sounds that strike | C |
| Upon the ear in wafts of melody | E |
| Are cruel mockeries O snail of thee | E |
| The cricket's chirp the grasshopper's shrill tone | F |
| The locust's jarring cry all mock thy lone | F |
| And dumb like presence May this heart of mine | G |
| When tried put on a resignation such as thine | G |
