Sonnet To April Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBAACCADD| Emblem of life see changeful April sail | A |
| In varying vest along the shadowy skies | B |
| Now bidding summer's softest zephyrs rise | B |
| Anon recalling winter's stormy gale | A |
| And pouring from the cloud her sudden hail | A |
| Then smiling through the tear that dims her eyes | B |
| While Iris with her braid the welkin dyes | B |
| Promise of sunshine not so prone to fail | A |
| So to us sojourners in life's low vale | A |
| The smiles of fortune flatter to deceive | C |
| While still the fates the web of misery weave | C |
| So Hope exultant spreads her a euml ry sail | A |
| And from the present gloom the soul conveys | D |
| To distant summers and far happier days | D |
