Sonnet 06 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCBCBBBDEEF| Oh you are more desirable to me | A |
| Than all I staked in an impulsive hour | B |
| Making my youth the sport of chance to be | A |
| Blighted or torn in its most perfect flower | B |
| For I think less of what that chance may bring | C |
| Than how before returning into fire | B |
| To make my dearest memory of the thing | C |
| That is but now my ultimate desire | B |
| And in old times I should have prayed to her | B |
| Whose haunt the groves of windy Cyprus were | B |
| To prosper me and crown with good success | D |
| My will to make of you the rose twined bowl | E |
| From whose inebriating brim my soul | E |
| Shall drink its last of earthly happiness | F |
