Sonnet Xxiii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBA CDDC EEF GHG

What good is it to me that once you praisedA
The golden splendour of my plaited hairB
Or that to two bright Suns you would compareB
The beauty of my eyes from which Love gazedA
-
And shot the cruel darts so expertlyC
Where are you now tears that so quickly driedD
Or death which was to prove you would abideD
By oath of love and solemn loyaltyC
-
Or did you seek from malice to deludeE
Slavery by pretending servitudeE
Forgive the thought this once my dearest oneF
-
When grief and anger fiercely combineG
I know wherever you may have goneH
Your martyrdom is as harsh as mineG
