Licia Sonnets 28 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| In time the strong and stately turrets fall | A |
| In time the rose and silver lilies die | B |
| In time the monarchs captive are and thrall | A |
| In time the sea and rivers are made dry | B |
| The hardest flint in time doth melt asunder | C |
| Still living fame in time doth fade away | D |
| The mountains proud we see in time come under | C |
| And earth for age we see in time decay | D |
| The sun in time forgets for to retire | E |
| From out the east where he was wont to rise | F |
| The basest thoughts we see in time aspire | E |
| And greedy minds in time do wealth despise | F |
| Thus all sweet fair in time must have an end | G |
| Except thy beauty virtues and thy friend | G |
