Sonnet Xlvi: Plain-path'd Experience Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| Plain path'd Experience th'unlearned's guide | A |
| Her simple followers evidently shows | B |
| Sometimes what Schoolmen scarcely can decide | A |
| Nor yet wise Reason absolutely knows | B |
| In making trial of a murther wrought | C |
| If the vile actors of the heinous deed | D |
| Near the dead body happily be brought | C |
| Oft it hath been prov'd the breathless corse will bleed | D |
| She's coming near that my poor heart hath slain | E |
| Long since departed to the world no more | F |
| The ancient wounds no longer can contain | E |
| But fall to bleeding as they did before | F |
| But what of this Should she to death be led | G |
| It furthers justice but helps not the dead | G |
