Sonnet 15 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCADDAEFGHIF| True Christian tender husband gentle Sire | A |
| A stricken household mourns thee but its loss | B |
| Is Heaven's gain and thine upon the cross | B |
| God hangs the crown the pinion and the lyre | C |
| And thou hast won them all Could we desire | A |
| To quench that diadem's celestial light | D |
| To hush thy song and stay thy heavenward flight | D |
| Because we miss thee by this autumn fire | A |
| Ah no ah no chant on soar on Reign on | E |
| For we are better thou art happier thus | F |
| And haply from the splendor of thy throne | G |
| Or haply from the echoes of thy psalm | H |
| Something may fall upon us like the calm | I |
| To which thou shalt hereafter welcome us | F |
