Sonnets Xii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDECF| Cherish you then the hope I shall forget | A |
| At length my lord Pieria put away | B |
| For your so passing sake this mouth of clay | B |
| These mortal bones against my body set | A |
| For all the puny fever and frail sweat | A |
| Of human love renounce for these I say | B |
| The Singing Mountain's memory and betray | B |
| The silent lyre that hangs upon me yet | A |
| Ah but indeed some day shall you awake | C |
| Rather from dreams of me that at your side | D |
| So many nights a lover and a bride | D |
| But stern in my soul's chastity have lain | E |
| To walk the world forever for my sake | C |
| And in each chamber find me gone again | F |
