Sonnet Viii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDDCEEFGGF| With many a weary step at length I gain | A |
| Thy summit Lansdown and the cool breeze plays | B |
| Gratefully round my brow as hence the gaze | B |
| Returns to dwell upon the journeyed plain | A |
| 'Twas a long way and tedious to the eye | C |
| Tho fair the extended vale and fair to view | D |
| The falling leaves of many a faded hue | D |
| That eddy in the wild gust moaning by | C |
| Even so it fared with Life in discontent | E |
| Restless thro' Fortune's mingled scenes I went | E |
| Yet wept to think they would return no more | F |
| But cease fond heart in such sad thoughts to roam | G |
| For surely thou ere long shall reach thy home | G |
| And pleasant is the way that lies before | F |
