Sonnet Xxii. By The Same. To Solitude. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDFGHGHIIOH Solitude to thy sequester'd vale | A |
I come to hide my sorrow and my tears | B |
And to thy echoes tell the mournful tale | A |
Which scarce I trust to pitying Friendship's ears | C |
Amidst thy wild woods and untrodden glades | D |
No sounds but those of melancholy move | E |
And the low winds that die among thy shades | D |
Seem like soft Pity's sighs for hopeless love | F |
And sure some story of despair and pain | G |
In yon deep copse thy murm'ring doves relate | H |
And Hark methinks in that long plaintive strain | G |
Thine own sweet songstress weeps my wayward fate | H |
Ah Nymph that fate assist me to endure | I |
And bear awhile what death alone can cure | I |
