Licia Sonnets 25 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEFGFGHIHIJK| Seven are the lights that wander in the skies | A |
| And at these seven I wonder in my love | B |
| So see the moon how pale she doth arise | A |
| Standing amazed as though she durst not move | C |
| So is my sweet much paler than the snow | D |
| Constant her looks these looks that cannot change | E |
| Mercury the next a god sweet tongued we know | D |
| But her sweet voice doth wonders speak more strange | E |
| The rising Sun doth boast him of his pride | F |
| And yet my love is far more fair than he | G |
| The warlike Mars can wieldless weapons guide | F |
| But yet that god is far more weak than she | G |
| The lovely Venus seemeth to be fair | H |
| But at her best my love is far more bright | I |
| Saturn for age with groans doth dim the air | H |
| Whereas my love with smiles doth give it light | I |
| Gaze at her brows where heaven ingrafted is | J |
| Then sigh and swear there is no heaven but this | K |
