Four Sonnets: 03 (oh, Think Not I Am Faithful To A Vow!) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGFGHH| Oh think not I am faithful to a vow | A |
| Faithless am I save to love's self alone | B |
| Were you not lovely I would leave you now | A |
| After the feet of beauty fly my own | B |
| Were you not still my hunger's rarest food | C |
| And water ever to my wildest thirst | D |
| I would desert you think not but I would | E |
| And seek another as I sought you first | D |
| But you are mobile as the veering air | F |
| And all your charms more changeful than the tide | G |
| Wherefore to be inconstant is no care | F |
| I have but to continue at your side | G |
| So wanton light and false my love are you | H |
| I am most faithless when I most am true | H |
