Sonnet (as Thus Oppressed With Many A Heavy Care) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEEDFF| As thus oppressed with many a heavy care | A |
| Though young yet sorrowful I turn my feet | B |
| To the dark woodland longing much to greet | B |
| The form of Peace if chance she sojourn there | A |
| Deep thought and dismal verging to despair | A |
| Fills my sad breast and tired with this vain coil | C |
| I shrink dismay'd before life's upland toil | C |
| And as amid the leaves the evening air | A |
| Whispers still melody I think ere long | D |
| When I no more can hear these woods will speak | E |
| And then a sad smile plays upon my cheek | E |
| And mournful phantasies upon me throng | D |
| And I do ponder with most strange delight | F |
| On the calm slumbers of the dead man's night | F |
