Sonnet: I Muse Over Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBCDEBDFGHFGI| At whiles yea oftentimes I muse over | A |
| The quality of anguish that is mine | B |
| Through Love then pity makes my voice to pine | B |
| Saying 'Is any else thus anywhere ' | C |
| Love smileth me whose strength is ill to bear | D |
| So that of all my life is left no sigh | E |
| Except one thought and that because 'tis thine | B |
| Leaves not the body but abideth there | D |
| And then if I whom other aid forsook | F |
| Would aid myself and innocent of art | G |
| Would fain have sight of thee as a last hope | H |
| No sooner do I lift mine eyes to look | F |
| Than the blood seems as shaken from my heart | G |
| And all my pulses beat at once and stop | I |
Dante Alighieri
