Licia Sonnets 09 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGFGHHLove was laid down all weary fast asleep | A |
Whereas my love his armor took away | B |
The boy awaked and straight began to weep | A |
But stood amazed and knew not what to say | B |
Weep not my boy said Venus to her son | C |
Thy weapons none can wield but thou alone | D |
Licia the fair this harm to thee hath done | C |
I saw her here and presently was gone | E |
She will restore them for she hath no need | F |
To take thy weapons where thy valour lies | G |
For men to wound the Fates have her decreed | F |
With favour hands with beauty and with eyes | G |
No Venus no she scorns them credit me | H |
But robbed thy son that none might care for thee | H |
