Sonnet 007: Lo, In The Orient When The Gracious Light Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDFGHGHIJ| Lo in the orient when the gracious light | A |
| Lifts up his burning head each under eye | B |
| Doth homage to his new appearing sight | A |
| Serving with looks his sacred majesty | C |
| And having climbed the steep up heavenly hill | D |
| Resembling strong youth in his middle age | E |
| Yet mortal looks adore his beauty still | D |
| Attending on his golden pilgrimage | F |
| But when from highmost pitch with weary car | G |
| Like feeble age he reeleth from the day | H |
| The eyes 'fore duteous now converted are | G |
| From his low tract and look another way | H |
| So thou thyself outgoing in thy noon | I |
| Unlooked on diest unless thou get a son | J |
