Sonnet Xxxvi: Lead Me, Sicilian Maids Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAAAABCBCBC| Lead me Sicilian Maids to haunted bow'rs | A |
| While yon pale moon displays her faintest beams | A |
| O'er blasted woodlands and enchanted streams | A |
| Whose banks infect the breeze with pois'nous flow'rs | A |
| Ah lead me where the barren mountain tow'rs | A |
| Where no sounds echo but the night owl's screams | A |
| Where some lone spirit of the desart gleams | A |
| And lurid horrors wing the fateful hours | A |
| Now goaded frenzy grasps my shrinking brain | B |
| Her touch absorbs the crystal fount of woe | C |
| My blood rolls burning through each gasping vein | B |
| Away lost Lyre unless thou can'st bestow | C |
| A charm to lull that agonizing pain | B |
| Which those who never lov'd can never know | C |
