Licia Sonnets 48 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEFGHIJJI saw sweet Licia when the spider ran | A |
Within your house to weave a worthless web | B |
You present were and feared her with your fan | A |
So that amaz d speedily she fled | C |
She in your house such sweet perfumes did smell | D |
And heard the Muses with their notes refined | E |
Thus filled with envy could no longer dwell | D |
But straight returned and at your house repined | E |
Then tell me spider why of late I saw | F |
Thee lose thy poison and thy bowels gone | G |
Did these enchant and keep thy limbs in awe | H |
And made thy forces to be small or none | I |
No no thou didst by chance my Licia see | J |
Who for her look Minerva seemed to thee | J |
