Sonnet Iii: Mindful Of You The Sodden Earth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD| Mindful of you the sodden earth in spring | A |
| And all the flowers that in the springtime grow | B |
| And dusty roads and thistles and the slow | B |
| Rising of the round moon all throats that sing | A |
| The summer through and each departing wing | A |
| And all the nests that the bared branches show | B |
| And all winds that in any weather blow | B |
| And all the storms that the four seasons bring | A |
| You go no more on your exultant feet | C |
| Up paths that only mist and morning knew | D |
| Or watch the wind or listen to the beat | C |
| Of a bird's wings too high in air to view | D |
| But you were something more than young and sweet | C |
| And fair and the long year remembers you | D |
