Sonet 43 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFECGG| Whilst thus my pen striues to eternize thee | A |
| Age rules my lines with wrincles in my face | B |
| Where in the Map of all my misery | A |
| Is modeld out the world of my disgrace | B |
| Whilst in despight of tyrannizing times | C |
| Medea like I make thee young againe | D |
| Proudly thou scorn'st my world outwearing rimes | C |
| And murther'st vertue with thy coy disdaine | D |
| And though in youth my youth vntimely perrish | E |
| To keepe thee from obliuion and the graue | F |
| Ensuing ages yet my rimes shall cherrish | E |
| Where I entomb'd my better part shall saue | C |
| And though this earthly body fade and die | G |
| My name shall mount vpon eternitie | G |
