The Soote Season
The soote season, that bud and bloom forth brings, A
With green hath clad the hill and eke the vale; B
The nightingale with feathers new she sings; A
The turtle to her make hath told her tale. B
Summer is come, for every spray now springs, C
The hart hath hung his old head on the pale; D
The buck in brake his winter coat he flings; C
The fishes flete with new repaired scale; D
The adder all her slough away she slings; E
The swift swallow pursueth the flyes smale; F
The busy bee her honey now she mings, E
Winter is worn that was the flowers' bale. F
And thus I see among these pleasant things G
Each care decays, and yet my sorrow springs. G

It is a sonnet called The Soote Season and it was written by Henry Howard, Earl of Surrey.
It is divided into three quatrains and a rhyming couplet, rhyming ABAB CDCD EFEF GG.
There are two rhymes throughout the whole poem.
It is and iambic pentameter with a monotonous tone and reading, but it is well structured.
The first thirteen lines of the sonnet dignify the joys of changing seasons and in the last line the reader expects the same, but is confronted with an emotion contrary to that portrayed in the rest of the poem.
We do not really know what the poem is about until we read the very last line, which has the key of it.
The theme of the poems is the contrast with the nature and his feeling for his unrequited love.
In the first quatrain the poet is talking about season, and he is using two animals associated with love. Nightingale is associated with love because it won't stop singing day and night in the mate season. And he uses the turtle because it is a bird that only has a couple, and if it is separated from it, they remain alone forever.
He is comparing the season with love. He uses alliteration in the first line, the “s” in “soote” and “season” and the “b” in “bud”, “bloom” and “brings”.
He is using pastoral imagery of coming spring, because he is talking about the green hills, birds and nature.
In the second quatrain the poet introduces the summer season.
In this quatrain Surrey is talking about how animals are living the spring. He enumerates them throughout this quatrain and the list continues on in the third quatrain.
He uses animal imagery. He mentions “hart”,”buck” and “fishes”. He explains how these animals are renewing.
In this part of the poem he uses much alliteration, in the fifth line the “s” in “summer” and “spray” , “springs”, in the sixth line the “h” in “hart”, “hath”, “hung” and “head”, in the seventh line the “b” in “buck” and “brake” and in the eighth line the “f” in “fishes” and “float”.
In the third quatrain the poet continues the enumeration and the description of the renewing of animals. In this quatrain we find again animal imagery. He mentions “adder”, “swallow” and “bee”.
In this quatrain we find alliteration, in line ninth is “s” in “slough” and slings”, in the tenth is “s” in “swift”, “swallow” and “small”, in the eleventh is “b” in “busy” and “bee” and in twelfth is “w” in “winter ” and “worn”.
In the last line we find that the state of mind of the writer does not coincide with the spring season. He is expressing he is sad while everything is renewing and everybody is happy. He is talking about how every creature in nature is renewing but he is sad by his unrequited love.
The poem is there to emphasize, the key of the poem is just the last line.
He uses caesura in line 14 to separate the positive part of the poem with the negative part. Before the caesura he is explaining who everybody and everything is happy and renewing by spring and after the caesura he explains he is sad and changes the point of view.
Surrey uses the word "springs" in lines 5 and 14 as a verb, though he is writing about the proper noun of a season, spring.
Surrey wrote the poem to express that while everybody was happy with the coming of spring, he is very sad because he loves a women and he is unrequited.
With he caesura he makes a pause to make the people think about what the poet is talking about, although the poet is writing very positively, he is very sad and at the end of the poem with the caesura he divides the poet into two parts , one positive and other negative. He dedicates more lines to describe positively the coming of spring than negative, but for him is more important his values and his sadness than the joy of the people. That is why he comments that “Each care decays, and yet my sorrow springs”.
