Sonnet Iv Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGFGWhat tho' no sculptur'd monument proclaim | A |
Thy fate yet Albert in my breast I bear | B |
Inshrin'd the sad remembrance yet thy name | A |
Will fill my throbbing bosom When DESPAIR | B |
The child of murdered HOPE fed on thy heart | C |
Loved honored friend I saw thee sink forlorn | D |
Pierced to the soul by cold Neglect's keen dart | C |
And Penury's hard ills and pitying Scorn | D |
And the dark spectre of departed JOY | E |
Inhuman MEMORY Often on thy grave | F |
Love I the solitary hour to employ | E |
Thinking on other days and heave the sigh | G |
Responsive when I mark the high grass wave | F |
Sad sounding as the cold breeze rustles by | G |
