Sonnet Xxvii: My Dear Belovèd Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADADADA| My dear Belov d who hast lifted me | A |
| From this drear flat of earth where I was thrown | B |
| And in betwixt the languid ringlets blown | B |
| A life breath till the forehead hopefully | A |
| Shines out again as all the angels see | A |
| Before thy saving kiss My own my own | B |
| Who camest to me when the world was gone | C |
| And I who looked for only God found thee | A |
| I find thee I am safe and strong and glad | D |
| As one who stands in dewless asphodel | A |
| Looks backward on the tedious time he had | D |
| In the upper life so I with bosom swell | A |
| Make witness here between the good and bad | D |
| That Love as strong as Death retrieves as well | A |
