Sonnet Liv: Care-charmer Sleep Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACBDBDEFEFGGCare charmer Sleep son of the sable Night | A |
Brother to death in silent darkness born | B |
Relieve my languish and restore the light | A |
With dark forgetting of my cares' return | C |
And let the day be time enough to mourn | B |
The shipwrack of my ill adventur'd youth | D |
Let waking eyes suffice to wail their scorn | B |
Without the torment of the night's untruth | D |
Cease Dreams th'imagery of our day desires | E |
To model forth the passions of the morrow | F |
Never let the rising Sun approve you liars | E |
To add more grief to aggravate my sorrow | F |
Still let me sleep embracing clouds in vain | G |
And never wake to feel the day's disdain | G |
Samuel Daniel
