Sonnet Xxxii: Blest As The Gods Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFEFEBlest as the Gods Sicilian Maid is he | A |
The youth whose soul thy yielding graces charm | B |
Who bound O thraldom sweet by beauty's arm | B |
In idle dalliance fondly sports with thee | A |
Blest as the Gods that iv'ry throne to see | A |
Throbbing with transports tender timid warm | C |
While round thy fragrant lips zephyrs swarm | C |
As op'ning buds attract the wand'ring Bee | A |
Yet short is youthful passion's fervid hour | D |
Soon shall another clasp the beauteous boy | E |
Soon shall a rival prove in that gay bow'r | F |
The pleasing torture of excessive joy | E |
The Bee flies sicken'd from the sweetest flow'r | F |
The lightning's shaft but dazzles to destroy | E |
