Sonnet Liii: Clear Anker Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: A BCBCDEDEFGHIJKAnother to the River Anker | A |
- | |
Clear Anker on whose silver sanded shore | B |
My soul shrin'd saint my fair Idea lies | C |
O blessed brook whose milk white swans adore | B |
The crystal stream refined by her eyes | C |
Where sweet myrrh breathing Zephyr in the Spring | D |
Gently distils his nectar dropping showers | E |
Where nightingales in Arden sit and sing | D |
Among the dainty dew impearled flowers | E |
Say thus fair Brook when thou shalt see thy Queen | F |
Lo here thy shepherd spent his wand'ring years | G |
And in these shades dear nymph he oft hath been | H |
And here to thee he sacrific'd his tears | I |
Fair Arden thou my Tempe art alone | J |
And thou sweet Anker art my Helicon | K |
