Sonnet Xxviii: Soul-light Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCEFWhat other woman could be loved like you | A |
Or how of you should love possess his fill | B |
After the fulness of all rapture still | B |
As at the end of some deep avenue | A |
A tender glamour of day there comes to view | A |
Far in your eyes a yet more hungering thrill | B |
Such fire as Love's soul winnowing hands distil | B |
Even from his inmost ark of light and dew | A |
And as the traveller triumphs with the sun | C |
Glorying in heat's mid height yet startide brings | D |
Wonder new born and still fresh transport springs | D |
From limpid lambent hours of day begun | C |
Even so through eyes and voice your soul doth move | E |
My soul with changeful light of infinite love | F |
