Sonnet 09 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDEDE| I know not why but all this weary day | A |
| Suggested by no definite grief or pain | B |
| Sad fancies have been flitting through my brain | B |
| Now it has been a vessel losing way | A |
| Rounding a stormy headland now a gray | A |
| Dull waste of clouds above a wintry main | B |
| And then a banner drooping in the rain | B |
| And meadows beaten into bloody clay | A |
| Strolling at random with this shadowy woe | C |
| At heart I chanced to wander hither Lo | C |
| A league of desolate marsh land with its lush | D |
| Hot grasses in a noisome tide left bed | E |
| And faint warm airs that nestle in the hush | D |
| Like whispers round the body of the dead | E |
