Sonnet Viii: Love's Lovers Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCCD

Some ladies love the jewels in Love's zoneA
And gold tipped darts he hath for painless playB
In idle scornful hours he flings awayB
And some that listen to his lute's soft toneA
Do love to vaunt the silver praise their ownA
Some prize his blindfold sight and there be theyB
Who kissed his wings which brought him yesterdayB
And thank his wings to day that he is flownA
My lady only loves the heart of LoveC
Therefore Love's heart my lady hath for theeD
His bower of unimagined flower and treeD
There kneels he now and all anhungered ofC
Thine eyes grey lit in shadowing hair aboveC
Seals with thy mouth his immortalityD
