Sonnet Ii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAACCADEFDEF| So shall this book wax like unto a well | A |
| Fairy with mirrored flowers about the brim | B |
| Or like some tarn that wailing curlews skim | B |
| Glassing the sallow uplands or brown fell | A |
| And so as men go down into a dell | A |
| Weary with noon to find relief and shade | C |
| When on the uneasy sick bed we are laid | C |
| We shall go down into thy book and tell | A |
| The leaves once blank to build again for us | D |
| Old summer dead and ruined and the time | E |
| Of later autumn with the corn in stook | F |
| So shalt thou stint the meagre winter thus | D |
| Of his projected triumph and the rime | E |
| Shall melt before the sunshine in thy book | F |
