Love Sonnet Lviii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCA DEFDEF| Do not surcharge our souls with that vile blame | A |
| To which our bodies are subjected here | B |
| Nor heap them with the horror of dull fear | C |
| Base borrowed from a life of torpid shame | A |
| But let them linger like a lovely flame | A |
| Above the clay to which they must cohere | C |
| Lighting the earthly to the heavenly sphere | C |
| To meet the mystery from which they came | A |
| - | |
| As midnight drinks a message from the moon | D |
| And morning takes her orders from the sun | E |
| So let our bodies to our souls submit | F |
| And live for ever in their still high noon | D |
| Where morn and midnight gather into one | E |
| And only angels on their missions flit | F |
