Sonnet Xxxix. To Night. From The Same. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBBCCDDCEE| I LOVE thee mournful sober suited Night | A |
| When the faint moon yet lingering in her wane | B |
| And veil'd in clouds with pale uncertain light | A |
| Hangs o'er the waters of the restless main | B |
| In deep depression sunk the enfeebled mind | C |
| Will to the deaf cold elements complain | B |
| And tell the embosom'd grief however vain | B |
| To sullen surges and the viewless wind | C |
| Though no repose on thy dark breast I find | C |
| I still enjoy thee cheerless as thou art | D |
| For in thy quiet gloom the exhausted heart | D |
| Is calm though wretched hopeless yet resigned | C |
| While to the winds and waves its sorrows given | E |
| May reach though lost on earth the ear of Heaven | E |
