Sonnet Vii. To The Evening Rainbow Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCCDEEFGHGH| Mild arch of promise on the evening sky | A |
| Thou shinest fair with many a lovely ray | B |
| Each in the other melting Much mine eye | A |
| Delights to linger on thee for the day | B |
| Changeful and many weather'd seem'd to smile | C |
| Flashing brief splendor thro' its clouds awhile | C |
| That deepen'd dark anon and fell in rain | D |
| But pleasant is it now to pause and view | E |
| Thy various tints of frail and watery hue | E |
| And think the storm shall not return again | F |
| Such is the smile that Piety bestows | G |
| On the good man's pale cheek when he in peace | H |
| Departing gently from a world of woes | G |
| Anticipates the realm where sorrows cease | H |
