Sonnet Xxiv: Pride Of Youth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDBBAEFFEEFEven as a child of sorrow that we give | A |
The dead but little in his heart can find | B |
Since without need of thought to his clear mind | B |
Their turn it is to die and his to live | C |
Even so the winged New Love smiles to receive | D |
Along his eddying plumes the auroral wind | B |
Nor forward glorying casts one look behind | B |
Where night rack shrouds the Old Love fugitive | A |
There is a change in every hour's recall | E |
And the last cowslip in the fields we see | F |
On the same day with the first corn poppy | F |
Alas for hourly change Alas for all | E |
The loves that from his hand proud Youth lets fall | E |
Even as the beads of a told rosary | F |
