Sonnet Xxiv. By The Same. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHH| MAKE there my tomb beneath the lime tree's shade | A |
| Where grass and flowers in wild luxuriance wave | B |
| Let no memorial mark where I am laid | A |
| Or point to common eyes the lover's grave | B |
| But oft at twilight morn or closing day | C |
| The faithful friend with fault'ring step shall glide | D |
| Tributes of fond regret by stealth to pay | C |
| And sigh o'er the unhappy suicide | D |
| And sometimes when the sun with parting rays | E |
| Gilds the long grass that hides my silent bed | F |
| The tear shall tremble in my Charlotte's eyes | G |
| Dear precious drops they shall embalm the dead | F |
| Yes Charlotte o'er the mournful spot shall weep | H |
| Where her poor Werter and his sorrows sleep | H |
