Sonnet Xii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCCACABB| ONe day I sought with her hart thrilling eies | A |
| to make a truce and termes to entertaine | B |
| all fearlesse then of so false enimies | A |
| which sought me to entrap in treasons traine | B |
| So as I then disarmed did remaine | B |
| a wicked ambush which lay hidden long | C |
| in the close couert of her guilefull eyen | B |
| thence breaking forth did thick about me throng | C |
| Too feeble I t'abide the brunt so strong | C |
| was forst to yeeld my selfe into their hands | A |
| who me captiuing streight with rigorous wrong | C |
| haue euer since me kept in cruell bands | A |
| So Ladie now to you I doo complaine | B |
| against your eies that iustice I may gaine | B |
