Sic Vita Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCDEEFFGG| Like to the falling of a star | A |
| Or as the flights of eagles are | A |
| Or like the fresh spring's gaudy hue | B |
| Or silver drops of morning dew | B |
| Or like a wind that chafes the flood | C |
| Or bubbles which on water stood | D |
| Even such is man whose borrowed light | E |
| Is straight called in and paid to night | E |
| The wind blows out the bubble dies | F |
| The spring entombed in autumn lies | F |
| The dew dries up the star is shot | G |
| The flight is past and man forgot | G |
