Licia Sonnets 20 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEFEGHIHJJ| First did I fear when first my love began | A |
| Possessed in fits by watchful jealousy | B |
| I sought to keep what I by favor won | C |
| And brooked no partner in my love to be | B |
| But tyrant sickness fed upon my love | D |
| And spread his ensigns dyed with color white | E |
| Then was suspicion glad for to remove | F |
| And loving much did fear to lose her quite | E |
| Erect fair sweet the colors thou didst wear | G |
| Dislodge thy griefs the short'ners of content | H |
| For now of life not love is all my fear | I |
| Lest life and love be both together spent | H |
| Live but fair love and banish thy disease | J |
| And love kind heart both when and whom thou please | J |
