Sonnet X: To One Who Has Been Long In City Pent Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDEDBFTo one who has been long in city pent | A |
'Tis very sweet to look into the fair | B |
And open face of heaven to breathe a prayer | B |
Full in the smile of the blue firmament | A |
Who is more happy when with heart's content | A |
Fatigued he sinks into some pleasant lair | B |
Of wavy grass and reads a debonair | B |
And gentle tale of love and languishment | A |
Returning home at evening with an ear | C |
Catching the notes of Philomel an eye | D |
Watching the sailing cloudlet's bright career | E |
He mourns that day so soon has glided by | D |
E'en like the passage of an angel's tear | B |
That falls through the clear ether silently | F |
