Licia Sonnets 46 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| If he be dead in whom no heart remains | A |
| Or lifeless be in whom no life is found | B |
| If he do pine that never comfort gains | A |
| And be distressed that hath his deadly wound | B |
| Then must I die whose heart elsewhere is clad | C |
| And lifeless pass the greedy worms to feed | D |
| Then must I pine that never comfort had | C |
| And be distressed whose wound with tears doth bleed | D |
| Which if I do why do I not wax cold | E |
| Why rest I not like one that wants a heart | F |
| Why move I still like him that life doth hold | E |
| And sense enjoy both of my joy and smart | F |
| Like Niobe queen which made a stone did weep | G |
| Licia my heart dead and alive doth keep | G |
