A Calendar Of Sonnets: October Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBCDEDEED| The month of carnival of all the year | A |
| When Nature lets the wild earth go its way | B |
| And spend whole seasons on a single day | B |
| The spring time holds her white and purple dear | A |
| October lavish flaunts them far and near | A |
| The summer charily her reds doth lay | B |
| Like jewels on her costliest array | B |
| October scornful burns them on a bier | C |
| The winter hoards his pearls of frost in sign | D |
| Of kingdom whiter pearls than winter knew | E |
| Oar empress wore in Egypt's ancient line | D |
| October feasting 'neath her dome of blue | E |
| Drinks at a single draught slow filtered through | E |
| Sunshiny air as in a tingling wine | D |
