Sonnet Lxxx Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBABAACACAA| AFter so long a race as I haue run | A |
| Through Faery land which those six books co m pile | B |
| giue leaue to rest me being halfe fordonne | A |
| and gather to my selfe new breath awhile | B |
| Then as a steed refreshed after toyle | B |
| out of my prison I will breake anew | A |
| and stoutly will that second worke assoyle | B |
| with strong endeuour and attention dew | A |
| Till then giue leaue to me in pleasant mew | A |
| to sport my muse and sing my loues sweet praise | C |
| the contemplation of whose heauenly hew | A |
| my spirit to an higher pitch will rayse | C |
| But let her prayses yet be low and meane | A |
| fit for the handmayd of the Faery Queene | A |
