Sonnet I Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCCDCDEFHAppy ye leaues when as those lilly hands | A |
which hold my life in their dead doing might | B |
shall handle you and hold in loues soft bands | A |
lyke captiues trembling at the victors sight | B |
And happy lines on which with starry light | B |
those lamping eyes will deigne sometimes to look | C |
and reade the sorrowes of my dying spright | B |
written with teares in harts close bleeding book | C |
And happy rymes bath'd in the sacred brooke | C |
of Helicon whence she deriued is | D |
when ye behold that Angels blessed looke | C |
my soules long lacked foode my heauens blis | D |
Leaues lines and rymes seeke her to please alone | E |
whom if ye please I care for other none | F |
