Sonnet. On A Picture Of Leander Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDEC| Come hither all sweet Maidens soberly | A |
| Down looking aye and with a chasten'd light | B |
| Hid in the fringes of your eyelids white | B |
| And meekly let your fair hands joined be | A |
| As if so gentle that ye could not see | A |
| Untouch'd a victim of your beauty bright | B |
| Sinking away to his young spirit's night | B |
| Sinking bewilder'd 'mid the dreary sea | A |
| 'Tis young Leander toiling to his death | C |
| Nigh swooning he doth purse his weary lips | D |
| For Hero's cheek and smiles against her smile | E |
| O horrid dream see how his body dips | D |
| Dead heavy arms and shoulders gleam awhile | E |
| He's gone up bubbles all his amorous breath | C |
