A New Pilgrimage: Sonnet Xxviii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEABCBFBFGG| Yet it is pitiful how friendships die | A |
| Spite of our oaths eternal and high vows | B |
| Some fall through blight of tongues wagged secretly | C |
| Some through strifes loud in empty honour's house | D |
| Some vanish with fame got too glorious | E |
| And rapt to heaven in fiery chariots fly | A |
| And some are drowned in sloth and the carouse | B |
| Of wedded joys and long love's tyranny | C |
| O ye who with high hearted valliance | B |
| Deem truth eternal and youth's dreams divine | F |
| Keep ye from love and fame and the mischance | B |
| Of other worship than the Muses nine | F |
| So haply shall you tread life's latest strand | G |
| With a true brother still and hand in hand | G |
