Sonnet Liv: Love's Fatality Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBACDBCEFFEEF| Sweet Love but oh most dread Desire of Love | A |
| Life thwarted Linked in gyves I saw them stand | B |
| Love shackled with Vain longing hand to hand | B |
| And one was eyed as the blue vault above | A |
| But hope tempestuous like a fire cloud hove | C |
| I' the other's gaze even as in his whose wand | D |
| Vainly all night with spell wrought power has spann'd | B |
| The unyielding caves of some deep treasure trove | C |
| Also his lips two writhen flakes of flame | E |
| Made moan Alas O Love thus leashed with me | F |
| Wing footed thou wing shouldered once born free | F |
| And I thy cowering self in chains grown tame | E |
| Bound to thy body and soul named with thy name | E |
| Life's iron heart even Love's Fatality | F |
