Sonnet Iv: Lovesight Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCBBCBBDEED| When do I see thee most beloved one | A |
| When in the light the spirits of mine eyes | B |
| Before thy face their altar solemnize | B |
| The worship of that Love through thee made known | C |
| Or when in the dusk hours we two alone | C |
| Close kissed and eloquent of still replies | B |
| Thy twilight hidden glimmering visage lies | B |
| And my soul only sees thy soul its own | C |
| O love my love if I no more should see | B |
| Thyself nor on the earth the shadow of thee | B |
| Nor image of thine eyes in any spring | D |
| How then should sound upon Life's darkening slope | E |
| The ground whirl of the perished leaves of Hope | E |
| The wind of Death's imperishable wing | D |
