Sonnet: On The Death Of Prince Henry Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| Methought his royal person did foretell | A |
| A kingly stateliness from all pride clear | B |
| His look majestic seem d to compel | A |
| All men to love him rather than to fear | B |
| And yet though he were every good man's joy | C |
| And the alonely comfort of his own | D |
| His very name with terror did annoy | C |
| His foreign foes so far as he was known | D |
| Hell drooped for fear the Turkey moon looked pale | E |
| Spain trembled and the most tempestuous sea | F |
| Where Behemoth the Babylonish whale | E |
| Keeps all his bloody and imperious plea | F |
| Was swoln with rage for fear he'd stop the tide | G |
| Of her o'er daring and insulting pride | G |
