THE

SONNET

Notice when two

lines rhyme, they have the same

number of syllables.

I shall not cry, for you nor for your life

For while you lived you banished maudlin thought. 10 syllables

And on those fearful nights, when full of strife,

You turned me round, made me feel as I ought. 10 syllables

You were my sun, m morning light, my wife.

I shall not cry for you, your lesson taught. 10 syllables
