Sonnet Lxxx: From Dawn To Noon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDDC| As the child knows not if his mother's face | A |
| Be fair nor of his elders yet can deem | B |
| What each most is but as of hill or stream | B |
| At dawn all glimmering life surrounds his place | A |
| Who yet tow'rd noon of his half weary race | A |
| Pausing awhile beneath the high sun beam | B |
| And gazing steadily back as through a dream | B |
| In things long past new features now can trace | A |
| Even so the thought that is at length fullgrown | C |
| Turns back to note the sun smit paths all grey | D |
| And marvellous once where first it walked alone | C |
| And haply doubts amid the unblenching day | D |
| Which most or least impelled its onward way | D |
| Those unknown things or these things overknown | C |
