Sonnet Xliv: Here Droops The Muse Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABCADEDFDEHere droops the muse while from her glowing mind | A |
Celestial Sympathy with humid eye | B |
Bids the light Sylph capricious Fancy fly | B |
Time's restless wings with transient flowr's to bind | A |
For now with folded arms and head inclin'd | A |
Reflection pours the deep and frequent sigh | B |
O'er the dark scroll of human destiny | C |
Where gaudy buds and wounding thorns are twin'd | A |
O Sky born VIRTUE sacred is thy name | D |
And though mysterious Fate with frown severe | E |
Oft decorates thy brows with wreaths of Fame | D |
Bespangled o'er with sorrow's chilling tear | F |
Yet shalt thou more than mortal raptures claim | D |
The brightest planet of th' ETERNAL SPHERE | E |
