Licia Sonnets 31 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHD| Whenas her lute is tun d to her voice | A |
| The air grows proud for honour of that sound | B |
| And rocks do leap to show how they rejoice | A |
| That in the earth such music should be found | B |
| Whenas her hair more worth more pale than gold | C |
| Like silver thread lies waiting in the air | D |
| Diana like she looks but yet more bold | C |
| Cruel in chase more chaste and yet more fair | D |
| Whenas she smiles the clouds for envy breaks | E |
| She Jove in pride encounters with a check | F |
| The sun doth shine for joy whenas she speaks | G |
| Thus heaven and earth do homage at her beck | F |
| Yet all these graces blots not graces are | H |
| If you my love of love do take no care | D |
