Love (i) Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEAAEFFImmortal Love author of this great frame | A |
Sprung from that beauty which can never fade | B |
How hath man parcel'd out Thy glorious name | A |
And thrown it on that dust which Thou hast made | B |
While mortal love doth all the title gain | C |
Which siding with Invention they together | D |
Bear all the sway possessing heart and brain | C |
Thy workmanship and give Thee share in neither | D |
Wit fancies beauty beauty raiseth wit | E |
The world is theirs they two play out the game | A |
Thou standing by and though Thy glorious name | A |
Wrought our deliverance from th' infernal pit | E |
Who sings Thy praise Only a scarf or glove | F |
Doth warm our hands and make them write of love | F |
