Sonnet Ix: Can It Be Right To Give Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCADEDEDE| Can it be right to give what I can give | A |
| To let thee sit beneath the fall of tears | B |
| As salt as mine and hear the sighing years | C |
| Re sighing on my lips renunciative | A |
| Through those infrequent smiles which fail to live | A |
| For all thy adjurations O my fears | C |
| That this can scarce be right We are not peers | C |
| So to be lovers and I own and grieve | A |
| That givers of such gifts as mine are must | D |
| Be counted with the ungenerous Out alas | E |
| I will not soil thy purple with my dust | D |
| Nor breathe my poison on thy Venice glass | E |
| Nor give thee any love which were unjust | D |
| Beloved I only love thee let it pass | E |
