Natalia-s Resurrection: Sonnet I Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFGHIHIJKOh woe is me for beauty idly blown | A |
And woe for passionate youth and joys that wait | B |
And woe for foolish love that is undone | C |
By woman's fear and fortune come too late | B |
And woe for empty words and hours that were | D |
Squandered in weeping Woe because of Death | E |
Who was at hand and while joy languished near | F |
Fearing to enter quickly from its sheath | G |
Drew out his sword and laid its point unto | H |
That virgin breast and there in stern embrace | I |
Did all that happiness had dared not do | H |
Rifling the treasures of that holy place | I |
And heeding not Love's shriek Alas poor Love | J |
Death will not spare what thou hast spared to prove | K |
