Sonnets From The Portuguese Ix Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACCADEDEDECan 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 |
