Sonnet 8 Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDCCCCDDThere's nothing grieues me but that Age should haste | A |
That in my dayes I may not see thee old | B |
That where those two deare sparkling Eyes are plac'd | A |
Onely two Loope holes then I might behold | B |
That louely arched yuorie pollish'd Brow | C |
Defac'd with Wrinkles that I might but see | D |
Thy daintie Hayre so curl'd and crisped now | C |
Like grizzled Mosse vpon some aged Tree | D |
Thy Cheeke now flush with Roses sunke and leane | C |
Thy Lips with age as any Wafer thinne | C |
Thy Pearly teeth out of thy head so cleane | C |
That when thou feed'st thy Nose shall touch thy Chinne | C |
These Lines that now thou scorn'st which should delight thee | D |
Then would I make thee read but to despight thee | D |
