Licia Sonnets 35 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGHWhenas I wish fair Licia for a kiss | A |
From those sweet lips where rose and lilies strive | B |
Straight do mine eyes repine at such a bliss | A |
And seek my lips thereof for to deprive | B |
Whenas I seek to glut mine eyes by sight | C |
My lips repine and call mine eyes away | D |
Thus both contend to have each other's right | C |
And both conspire to work my full decay | D |
O force admired of beauty in her pride | E |
In whose each part such strange effects there be | F |
That all my forces in themselves divide | E |
And make my senses plainly disagree | F |
If all were mine this envy would be gone | G |
Then grant me all fair sweet or grant me none | H |
