Sonnet To My Beloved Daughter Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB CDDC EDEDED| WHEN FATE in ruthless rage assail'd my breast | A |
| And Heaven relentless seal'd the harsh decree | B |
| HOPE placid soother of the mind distress'd | A |
| To calm my rending sorrows gave me THEE | B |
| - | |
| In all the charms of innocence array'd | C |
| 'Tis thine to sprinkle patience on my woes | D |
| As from thy voice celestial comfort flows | D |
| Glancing bright lustre o'er each dreary shade | C |
| - | |
| Still may thy growing REASON's light divine | E |
| Illume with joy my melancholy bow'rs | D |
| Still may the beams of sacred VIRTUE shine | E |
| To deck thy spring of youth with thornless flow'rs | D |
| So shall their splendid attributes combine | E |
| To shed soft sunshine on MY WINTRY HOURS | D |
