Sonnet I Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGH| Go Valentine and tell that lovely maid | A |
| Whom Fancy still will pourtray to my sight | B |
| How her Bard lingers in this sullen shade | A |
| This dreary gloom of dull monastic night | B |
| Say that from every joy of life remote | C |
| At evening's closing hour he quits the throng | D |
| Listening alone the ring dove's plaintive note | C |
| Who pours like him her solitary song | D |
| Say that her absence calls the sorrowing sigh | E |
| Say that of all her charms he loves to speak | F |
| In fancy feels the magic of her eye | E |
| In fancy views the smile illume her cheek | F |
| Courts the lone hour when Silence stills the grove | G |
| And heaves the sigh of Memory and of Love | H |
