Sonnets - Iv. - Why Art Thou Silent! Is Thy Love A Plant Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACBCBCDCEDE| Why art thou silent Is thy love a plant | A |
| Of such weak fibre that the treacherous air | B |
| Of absence withers what was once so fair | B |
| Is there no debt to pay no boon to grant | A |
| Yet have my thoughts for thee been vigilant | C |
| Bound to thy service with unceasing care | B |
| The mind's least generous wish a mendicant | C |
| For nought but what thy happiness could spare | B |
| Speak though this soft warm heart once free to hold | C |
| A thousand tender pleasures thine and mine | D |
| Be left more desolate more dreary cold | C |
| Than a forsaken bird's nest filled with snow | E |
| 'Mid its own bush of leafless eglantine | D |
| Speak that my torturing doubts their end may know | E |
