Sonnet 47 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCACECFCCIn pride of wit when high desire of fame | A |
Gaue life and courage to my labouring pen | B |
And first the sound and vertue of my name | A |
Won grace and credit in the eares of men | B |
With those the thronged Theaters that presse | C |
I in the circuite for the Lawrell stroue | D |
Where the full praise I freely must confesse | C |
In heate of blood a modest minde might moue | A |
With showts and daps at euerie little pawse | C |
When the prowd round on euerie side hath rung | E |
Sadly I sit vnmou'd with the applawse | C |
As though to me it nothing did belong | F |
No publique glorie vainely I pursue | C |
The praise I striue is to eternize you | C |
