Sonnet Xxv Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAABCDEEEFEFEE| HOw long shall this lyke dying lyfe endure | A |
| And know no end of her owne mysery | A |
| but wast and weare away in termes vnsure | A |
| twixt feare and hope depending doubtfully | B |
| Yet better were attonce to let me die | C |
| and shew the last ensample of your pride | D |
| then to torment me thus with cruelty | E |
| to proue your powre which I too wel haue tride | E |
| But yet if in your hardned brest ye hide | E |
| a close intent at last to shew me grace | F |
| then all the woes and wrecks which I abide | E |
| as meanes of blisse I gladly wil embrace | F |
| And wish that more and greater they might be | E |
| that greater meede at last may turne to mee | E |
