Licia Sonnets 10 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG

A painter drew the image of the boyA
Swift love with wings all naked and yet blindB
With bow and arrows bent for to destroyA
I blamed his skill and fault I thus did findB
A needless task I see thy cunning takeC
Misled by love thy fancy thee betrayedD
Love is no boy nor blind as men him makeC
Nor weapons wears whereof to be affrayedD
But if thou love wilt paint with greatest skillE
A love a maid a goddess and a queenF
Wonder and view at Licia's picture stillE
For other love the world hath never seenF
For she alone all hope all comfort givesG
Men's hearts souls all led by her favour livesG
