This has the rhyme scheme of a hybrid sonnet, with the rhymes following:
abba abba cdcd ee
The first two stanzas follow the same rhyme pattern-abba abba-with the end words:
skies/face/place/tries
eyes/case/grace/decsries
Then the next quatrain begins a new, more Shakespearean format-cdcd-with the end words:
me/wit/be/yet
Finally, the rhyming couplet at the end finishes the sonnet with 'ee':
posesse/ungratefulnesse
