Sonnet (sweet To The Gay Of Heart Is Summer's Smile) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCDDCEEC| Sweet to the gay of heart is Summer's smile | A |
| Sweet the wild music of the laughing Spring | B |
| But ah my soul far other scenes beguile | A |
| Where gloomy storms their sullen shadows fling | B |
| Is it for me to strike the Idalian string | B |
| Raise the soft music of the warbling wire | C |
| While in my ears the howls of furies ring | B |
| And melancholy waste the vital fire | C |
| Away with thoughts like these To some lone cave | D |
| Where howls the shrill blast and where sweeps the wave | D |
| Direct my steps there in the lonely drear | C |
| I'll sit remote from worldly noise and muse | E |
| Till through my soul shall Peace her balm infuse | E |
| And whisper sounds of comfort in mine ear | C |
