Licia Sonnets 19 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFAA

That time fair Licia when I stole a kissA
From off those lips where Cupid lovely laidB
I quaked for cold and found the cause was thisA
My life which loved for love behind me staidB
I sent my heart my life for to recallC
But that was held not able to returnD
And both detained as captives were in thrallC
And judged by her that both by sighs should burnD
Fair burn them both for that they were so boldE
But let the altar be within thy heartF
And I shall live because my life you holdE
You that give life to every living partF
A flame I took whenas I stole the kissA
Take you my life yet can I live with thisA
