Licia Sonnets 27 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGFHII| The crystal stream wherein my love did swim | A |
| Melted in tears as partners of my woe | B |
| Her shine was such as did the fountain dim | A |
| The pearl like fountain whiter than the snow | B |
| Then like perfume resolv d with a heat | C |
| The fountain smoked as if it thought to burn | D |
| A wonder strange to see the cold so great | E |
| And yet the fountain into smoke to turn | D |
| I searched the cause and found it to be this | F |
| She touched the water and it burned with love | G |
| Now by her means it purebased hath that bliss | F |
| Which all diseases quickly can remove | H |
| Then if by you these streams thus blesse'd be | I |
| Sweet grant me love and be not worse to me | I |
