Sonnet Lxii: When First I Ended Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFEGHIJIKK| When first I ended then I first began | A |
| The more I travell'd further from my rest | B |
| Where most I lost there most of all I wan | C |
| Pined with hunger rising from a feast | D |
| Methinks I fly yet want I legs to go | E |
| Wise in conceit in act a very sot | F |
| Ravish'd with joy amid a hell of woe | E |
| What most I seem that surest am I not | G |
| I build my hopes a world above the sky | H |
| Yet with the mole I creep into the earth | I |
| In plenty I am starv'd with penury | J |
| And yet I surfeit in the greatest dearth | I |
| I have I want despair and yet desire | K |
| Burn'd in a sea of ice and drown'd amidst a fire | K |
