Sonnet Xx. Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCADEEDCFGHFH| The piteous sobs that choke the Virgin's breath | A |
| For him the fair betrothed Youth who les | B |
| Cold in the narrow dwelling or the cries | C |
| With which a Mother wails her Darling's death | A |
| These from our Nature's common impulse spring | D |
| Unblamed unpraised but o'er the piled earth | E |
| Which hides the sheeted corse of gray haired Worth | E |
| If droops the soaring Youth with slackened wing | D |
| If he recall in saddest minstrelsy | C |
| Each tenderness bestowed each truth impressed | F |
| Such Grief is Reason Virtue Piety | G |
| And from the Almighty Father shall descend | H |
| Comforts on his late Evening whose young breast | F |
| Mourns with no transient love the aged friend | H |
