Sonnet Liii. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHI| THE shivering native who by Tenglio's side | A |
| Beholds with fond regret the parting light | B |
| Sink far away beneath the darkening tide | A |
| And leave him to long months of dreary night | B |
| Yet knows that springing from the eastern wave | C |
| The sun's glad beams shall re illume his way | D |
| And from the snows secured within his cave | C |
| He waits in patient hope returning day | D |
| Not so the sufferer feels who o'er the waste | E |
| Of joyless life is destin'd to deplore | F |
| Fond love forgotten tender friendship past | G |
| Which once extinguish'd can revive no more | F |
| O'er the blank void he looks with hopeless pain | H |
| For him those beams of heaven shall never shine again | I |
