His Last Sonnet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAACDCEFAFAGGBright star would I were steadfast as thou art | A |
Not in lone splendour hung aloft the night | B |
And watching with eternal lids apart | A |
Like Nature's patient sleepless Eremite | A |
The moving waters at their priestlike task | C |
Of pure ablution round earth's human shores | D |
Or gazing on the new soft fallen mask | C |
Of snow upon the mountains and the moors | E |
No yet still steadfast still unchangeable | F |
Pillowed upon my fair love's ripening breast | A |
To feel for ever its soft fall and swell | F |
Awake for ever in a sweet unrest | A |
Still still to hear her tender taken breath | G |
And so live ever or else swoon to death | G |
