• Sonnet 18• Put a box around the first quatrain • Underline the second quatrain• Put wavy underlines under the third quatrain• Put a bracket next to the rhyming couplet• Let’s label the rhyme scheme• Let’s count the syllables• TP-CASTT

How to label rhyme scheme• Step 1: look at the last word of the first line, label it A• Step 2: look at the last word of the next line, does it

rhyme with the last word of the previous line? • If yes, label “A”• If not, label “B”

• Step 3: does the last word in the line rhyme with the last word in any of the previous lines?• If rhymes with line 1, put “A”• If rhymes with line 2, put “B”• If it does not rhyme with any of the previous line, put “C”

• Step 4: Repeat step 3 for the rest of the poem

How to label rhyme scheme• Shall I compare thee to a summer's day?

Thou art more lovely and more temperate:Rough winds do shake the darling buds of May,And summer's lease hath all too short a date:Sometime too hot the eye of heaven shines,And often is his gold complexion dimm'd;And every fair from fair sometime declines,By chance or nature's changing course untrimm'd;But thy eternal summer shall not fadeNor lose possession of that fair thou owest;Nor shall Death brag thou wander'st in his shade,When in eternal lines to time thou growest:So long as men can breathe or eyes can see,So long lives this and this gives life to thee.
