The Golden Gift That Nature Did Thee Give Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDFGHGHII| The 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 |
