Sonnet 01 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEFGGHF

Poet if on a lasting fame be bentA
Thy unperturbing hopes thou will not roamB
Too far from thine own happy heart and homeB
Cling to the lowly earth and be contentA
So shall thy name be dear to many a heartC
So shall the noblest truths by thee be taughtD
The flower and fruit of wholesome human thoughtD
Bless the sweet labors of thy gentle artC
The brightest stars are nearest to the earthE
And we may track the mighty sun aboveF
Even by the shadow of a slender flowerG
Always O bard humility is powerG
And thou mayst draw from matters of the hearthH
Truths wide as nations and as deep as loveF
