Sonnet Lxxvii. To The Insect Of The Gossamer Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDEDFGFHII

SMALL viewless aeronaut that by the lineA
Of Gossamer suspended in mid airB
Float'st on a sun beam Living atom whereB
Ends thy breeze guided voyage with what designA
In ether dost thou launch thy form minuteC
Mocking the eye Alas before the veilD
Of denser clouds shall hide thee the pursuitE
Of the keen Swift may end thy fairy sailD
Thus on the golden thread that Fancy weavesF
Buoyant as Hope's illusive flattery breathesG
The young and visionary poet leavesF
Life's dull realities while sevenfold wreathsH
Of rainbow light around his head revolveI
Ah soon at Sorrow's touch the radiant dreams dissolveI
