Sonnet Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDDAECEBFF G| Oh thou hadst been a wife for Shakspeare's self | A |
| No head save some world genius ought to rest | B |
| Above the treasures of that perfect breast | B |
| Or nightly draw fresh light from those keen stars | C |
| Through which thy soul awes ours yet thou art bound | D |
| O waste of nature to a craven hound | D |
| To shameless lust and childish greed of pelf | A |
| Athene to a Satyr was that link | E |
| Forged by The Father's hand Man's reason bars | C |
| The bans which God allowed Ay so we think | E |
| Forgetting thou hadst weaker been full blest | B |
| Than thus made strong by suffering and more great | F |
| In martyrdom than throned as Caesar's mate | F |
