Sonnets Viii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBBCDEFDDEAnd you as well must die beloved dust | A |
And all your beauty stand you in no stead | B |
This flawless vital hand this perfect head | B |
This body of flame and steel before the gust | A |
Of Death or under his autumnal frost | C |
Shall be as any leaf be no less dead | B |
Than the first leaf that fell this wonder fled | B |
Altered estranged disintegrated lost | C |
Nor shall my love avail you in your hour | D |
In spite of all my love you will arise | E |
Upon that day and wander down the air | F |
Obscurely as the unattended flower | D |
It mattering not how beautiful you were | D |
Or how beloved above all else that dies | E |
