Sonnet Xxiii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EEF GHG| What good is it to me that once you praised | A |
| The golden splendour of my plaited hair | B |
| Or that to two bright Suns you would compare | B |
| The beauty of my eyes from which Love gazed | A |
| - | |
| And shot the cruel darts so expertly | C |
| Where are you now tears that so quickly dried | D |
| Or death which was to prove you would abide | D |
| By oath of love and solemn loyalty | C |
| - | |
| Or did you seek from malice to delude | E |
| Slavery by pretending servitude | E |
| Forgive the thought this once my dearest one | F |
| - | |
| When grief and anger fiercely combine | G |
| I know wherever you may have gone | H |
| Your martyrdom is as harsh as mine | G |
