Sonnet Xxi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCCDCDBB| WAs it the worke of nature or of Art | A |
| which tempred so the feature of her face | B |
| that pride and meeknesse mixt by equall part | A |
| doe both appeare t'adorne her beauties grace | B |
| For with mild pleasance which doth pride displace | B |
| she to her loues doth lookers eyes allure | C |
| with sterne countenance back again doth chace | B |
| their looser lookes that stir vp lustes impure | C |
| With such strange termes her eyes she doth inure | C |
| that with one looke she doth my life dismay | D |
| and with another doth it streight recure | C |
| her smile me drawes her frowne me driues away | D |
| Thus doth she traine and teach me with her lookes | B |
| such art of eyes I neuer read in bookes | B |
