Sonnet Xlix. From The Novel Of Celestina Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDCDDCCDDEDDFF| Supposed to have been written in a church yard over | A |
| the grave of a young woman of nineteen | B |
| THOU who sleep'st where hazle bands entwine | C |
| The vernal grass with paler violets drest | D |
| I would sweet maid thy humble bed were mine | C |
| And mine thy calm and enviable rest | D |
| For never more by human ills opprest | D |
| Shall thy soft spirit fruitlessly repine | C |
| Thou canst not now thy fondest hopes resign | C |
| Even in the hour that should have made thee blest | D |
| Light lies the turf upon thy virgin breast | D |
| And lingering here to love and sorrow true | E |
| The youth who once thy simple heart possest | D |
| Shall mingle tears with April's early dew | D |
| While still for him shall faithful Memory save | F |
| Thy form and virtues from the silent grave | F |
