Sonnet. Vvere Thy Heart Soft As Thou Art Faire Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDEFGG| VVere thy heart soft as thou art faire | A |
| Thou wer't a wonder past compare | A |
| But frozen Love and fierce disdain | B |
| By their extremes thy graces stain | B |
| Cold coyness quenches the still fires | C |
| Which glow in Lovers warm desires | C |
| And scorn like the quick Lightnings blaze | D |
| Darts death against affections gaze | D |
| O Heavens what prodigy is this | E |
| When Love in Beauty buried is | F |
| Or that dead pity thus should be | G |
| Tomb'd in a living cruelty | G |
