A Calendar Of Sonnets: July Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBABBBBCCBBC| Some flowers are withered and some joys have died | A |
| The garden reeks with an East Indian scent | B |
| From beds where gillyflowers stand weak and spent | B |
| The white heat pales the skies from side to side | A |
| But in still lakes and rivers cool content | B |
| Like starry blooms on a new firmament | B |
| White lilies float and regally abide | B |
| In vain the cruel skies their hot rays shed | B |
| The lily does not feel their brazen glare | C |
| In vain the pallid clouds refuse to share | C |
| Their dews the lily feels no thirst no dread | B |
| Unharmed she lifts her queenly face and head | B |
| She drinks of living waters and keeps fair | C |
