Her Beauty Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEFGGHHIIJJKK AAJJLL| Her true beauty leaves behind | A |
| Apprehensions in my mind | A |
| Of more sweetness than all art | B |
| Or inventions can impart | B |
| Thoughts too deep to be expressed | C |
| And too strong to be suppressed | C |
| What pearls what rubies can | D |
| Seem so lovely fair to man | D |
| As her lips whom he doth love | E |
| When in sweet discourse they move | F |
| Or her lovelier teeth the while | G |
| She doth bless him with a smile | G |
| Stars indeed fair creatures be | H |
| Yet amongst us where is he | H |
| Joys not more the whilst he lies | I |
| Sunning in his mistress' eyes | I |
| Than in all the glimmering light | J |
| Of a starry winter's night | J |
| Note the beauty of an eye | K |
| And if aught you praise it by | K |
| Leave such passion in your mind | A |
| Let my reason's eye be blind | A |
| Mark if ever red or white | J |
| Anywhere gave such delight | J |
| As when they have taken place | L |
| In a worthy woman's face | L |
