Licia Sonnets 34 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGHGII| Pale are my looks forsaken of my life | A |
| Cinders my bones consume'd with thy flame | B |
| Floods are my tears to end this burning strife | A |
| And yet I sigh for to increase the same | B |
| I mourn alone because alone I burn | C |
| Who doubts of this then let him learn to love | D |
| Her looks cold ice into a flame can turn | C |
| As I distress d in myself do prove | E |
| Respect fair Licia what my torments are | F |
| Count but the tithe both of my sighs and tears | G |
| See how my love doth still increase my care | H |
| And care's increase my life to nothing wears | G |
| Send but a sigh my flame for to increase | I |
| Or lend a tear and cause it so to cease | I |
