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

Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDFGHGHII

The golden gift that Nature did thee giveA
To fasten friends and feed them at thy willB
With form and favour taught me to believeC
How thou art made to show her greatest skillB
Whose hidden virtues are not so unknownD
But lively dooms might gather at the firstE
Where beauty so her perfect seed hath sownD
Of other graces follow needs there mustF
Now certes lady since all this is trueG
That from above thy gifts are thus electH
Do not deface them then with fancies newG
Nor change of minds let not thy mind infectH
But mercy him thy friend that doth thee serveI
Who seeks alway thine honour to preserveI
