Sonnet Xxxvi. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDDDAEAFGG| SHOULD the lone wanderer fainting on his way | A |
| Rest for a moment of the sultry hours | B |
| And though his path through thorns and roughness lay | A |
| Pluck the wild rose or woodbine's gadding flowers | B |
| Weaving gay wreaths beneath some sheltering tree | C |
| The sense of sorrow he awhile may lose | D |
| So have I sought thy flowers fair Poesy | D |
| So charm'd my way with Friendship and the Muse | D |
| But darker now grows life's unhappy day | A |
| Dark with new clouds of evil yet to come | E |
| Her pencil sickening Fancy throws away | A |
| And weary Hope reclines upon the tomb | F |
| And points my wishes to that tranquil shore | G |
| Where the pale spectre Care pursues no more | G |
