Sonnet Xliii: Love And Hope Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCCDBCEFFEGG| Bless love and hope Full many a withered year | A |
| Whirled past us eddying to its chill doomsday | B |
| And clasped together where the blown leaves lay | B |
| We long have knelt and wept full many a tear | C |
| Yet lo one hour at last the Spring's compeer | C |
| Flutes softly to us from some green byeway | D |
| Those years those tears are dead but only they | B |
| Bless love and hope true soul for we are here | C |
| Cling heart to heart nor of this hour demand | E |
| Whether in very truth when we are dead | F |
| Our hearts shall wake to know Love's golden head | F |
| Sole sunshine of the imperishable land | E |
| Or but discern through night's unfeatured scope | G |
| Scorn fired at length the illusive eyes of Hope | G |
