Licia Sonnets 17 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGGAs are the sands fair Licia on the shore | A |
Or colored flowers garlands of the spring | B |
Or as the frosts not seen not felt before | A |
Or as the fruits that autumn forth doth bring | B |
As twinkling stars the tinsel of the night | C |
Or as the fish that gallop in the seas | D |
As airs each part that still escapes our sight | C |
So are my sighs controllers of my ease | D |
Yet these are such as needs must have an end | E |
For things finite none else hath nature done | F |
Only the sighs which from my heart I send | E |
Will never cease but where they first begun | F |
Accept them sweet as incense due to thee | G |
For you immortal made them so to be | G |
