Love That Doth Reign And Live Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFCFCGH| Love that doth reign and live within my thought | A |
| And built his seat within my captive breast | B |
| Clad in the arms wherein with me he fought | A |
| Oft in my face he doth his banner rest | B |
| But she that taught me love and suffer pain | C |
| My doubtful hope and eke my hot desire | D |
| With shamefast look to shadow and refrain | C |
| Her smiling grace converteth straight to ire | E |
| And coward Love then to the heart apace | F |
| Taketh his flight where he doth lurk and plain | C |
| His purpose lost and dare not show his face | F |
| For my lord's guilt thus faultless bide I pain | C |
| Yet from my lord shall not my foot remove | G |
| Sweet is the death that taketh end by love | H |
