Sonnet 073: That Time Of Year Thou Mayst In Me Behold Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHHThat time of year thou mayst in me behold | A |
When yellow leaves or none or few do hang | B |
Upon those boughs which shake against the cold | A |
Bare ruined choirs where late the sweet birds sang | B |
In me thou seest the twilight of such day | C |
As after sunset fadeth in the west | D |
Which by and by black night doth take away | C |
Death's second self that seals up all in rest | D |
In me thou seest the glowing of such fire | E |
That on the ashes of his youth doth lie | F |
As the death bed whereon it must expire | G |
Consumed with that which it was nourished by | F |
This thou perceiv'st which makes thy love more strong | H |
To love that well which thou must leave ere long | H |
William Shakespeare
