Sonnet Xviii. To The Autumnal Moon Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEAEAEA| Mild Splendor of the various vested Night | A |
| Mother of wildly working visions hail | B |
| I watch thy gliding while with watery light | A |
| Thy weak eye glimmers through a fleecy veil | B |
| And when thou lovest thy pale orb to shroud | C |
| Behind the gather'd blackness lost on high | D |
| And when thou dartest from the wind rent cloud | C |
| Thy placid lightning o'er th' awakened sky | D |
| Ah such is Hope As changeful and as fair | E |
| Now dimly peering on the wistful sight | A |
| Now hid behind the dragon wing'd Despair | E |
| But soon emerging in her radiant might | A |
| She o'er the sorrow clouded breast of Care | E |
| Sails like a meteor kindling in its flight | A |
