Licia Sonnets 05 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBBCDCDEFEFGGLove with her hair my love by force hath tied | A |
To serve her lips her eyes her voice her hand | B |
I smiled for joy when I the boy espied | B |
To lie unchained and live at her command | B |
She if she look or kiss or sing or smile | C |
Cupid withal doth smile doth sing doth kiss | D |
Lips hands voice eyes all hearts that may beguile | C |
Because she scorns all hearts but only this | D |
Venus for this in pride began to frown | E |
That Cupid born a god enthralled should be | F |
She in disdain her pretty son threw down | E |
And in his place with love she chain d me | F |
So now sweet love though I myself be thrall | G |
Not her a goddess but thyself I call | G |
