Sonnet Xxvii: Oh! Ye Bright Stars Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDCEOh ye bright Stars that on the Ebon fields | A |
Of Heav'n's empire trembling seems to stand | B |
'Till rosy morn unlocks her portal bland | B |
Where the proud Sun his fiery banner wields | A |
To flames less fierce than mine your lustre yields | A |
And pow'rs more strong my countless tears command | B |
Love strikes the feeling heart with ruthless hand | B |
And only spares the breast which dullness shields | A |
Since then capricious nature but bestows | C |
The fine affections of the soul to prove | D |
A keener sense of desolating woes | C |
Far far from me the empty boast remove | D |
If bliss from coldness pain from passion flows | C |
Ah who would wish to feel or learn to love | E |
