Sonnet Xxvii. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACADADDEDEFG| SIGHING I see yon little troop at play | A |
| By sorrow yet untouch'd unhurt by care | B |
| While free and sportive they enjoy to day | A |
| 'Content and careless of to morrow's fare ' | C |
| O happy age when hope's unclouded ray | A |
| Lights their green path and prompts their simple mirth | D |
| Ere yet they feel the thorns that lurking lay | A |
| To wound the wretched pilgrims of the earth | D |
| Making them rue the hour that gave them birth | D |
| And threw them on a world so full of pain | E |
| Where prosperous folly treads on patient worth | D |
| And to deaf pride misfortune pleads in vain | E |
| Ah for their future fate how many fears | F |
| Oppress my heart and fill mine eyes with tears | G |
