Sonnets From The Portuguese Vii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCD| The face of all the world is changed I think | A |
| Since first I heard the footsteps of thy soul | B |
| Move still oh still beside me as they stole | B |
| Betwixt me and the dreadful outer brink | A |
| Of obvious death where I who thought to sink | A |
| Was caught up into love and taught the whole | B |
| Of life in a new rhythm The cup of dole | B |
| God gave for baptism I am fain to drink | A |
| And praise its sweetness Sweet with thee anear | C |
| The names of country heaven are changed away | D |
| For where thou art or shalt be there or here | C |
| And this this lute and song loved yesterday | D |
| The singing angels know are only dear | C |
| Because thy name moves right in what they say | D |
