Sonnet Lvii: You Best Discern'd Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGHGIJ| You best discern'd of my mind's inward eyes | A |
| And yet your graces outwardly divine | B |
| Whose dear remembrance in my bosom lies | A |
| Too rich a relic for so poor a shrine | B |
| You in whom Nature chose herself to view | C |
| When she her own perfection would admire | D |
| Bestowing all her excellence on you | C |
| At whose pure eyes Love lights his hallow'd fire | E |
| E'en as a man that in some trance hath seen | F |
| More than his won'ring utt'rance can unfold | G |
| That rapt in spirit in better worlds hath been | H |
| So must your praise distractedly be told | G |
| Most of all short when I would show you most | I |
| In your perfections so much am I lost | J |
