A Calendar Of Sonnets: April Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDDCD| No days such honored days as these While yet | A |
| Fair Aphrodite reigned men seeking wide | B |
| For some fair thing which should forever bide | B |
| On earth her beauteous memory to set | A |
| In fitting frame that no age could forget | A |
| Her name in lovely April's name did hide | B |
| And leave it there eternally allied | B |
| To all the fairest flowers Spring did beget | A |
| And when fair Aphrodite passed from earth | C |
| Her shrines forgotten and her feasts of mirth | C |
| A holier symbol still in seal and sign | D |
| Sweet April took of kingdom most divine | D |
| When Christ ascended in the time of birth | C |
| Of spring anemones in Palestine | D |
