Sonnet 73: That Time Of Year Thou Mayst In Me Behold Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHH| That 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 |
