The Golden Gift That Nature Did Thee Give Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDFGHGHIIThe golden gift that Nature did thee give | A |
To fasten friends and feed them at thy will | B |
With form and favour taught me to believe | C |
How thou art made to show her greatest skill | B |
Whose hidden virtues are not so unknown | D |
But lively dooms might gather at the first | E |
Where beauty so her perfect seed hath sown | D |
Of other graces follow needs there must | F |
Now certes lady since all this is true | G |
That from above thy gifts are thus elect | H |
Do not deface them then with fancies new | G |
Nor change of minds let not thy mind infect | H |
But mercy him thy friend that doth thee serve | I |
Who seeks alway thine honour to preserve | I |
