Sonnet Xxviii: To Such As Say Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDAEAEFFTo such as say thy love I overprize | A |
And do not stick to term my praises folly | B |
Against these folks that think themselves so wise | A |
I thus oppose my Reason's forces wholly | B |
Though I give more than well affords my state | C |
In which expense the most suppose me vain | D |
Which yields them nothing at the easiest rate | C |
Yet at this price returns me treble gain | D |
They value not unskillful how to use | A |
And I give much because I gain thereby | E |
I that thus take or they that thus refuse | A |
Whether are these deceived then or I | E |
In everything I hold this maxim still | F |
The circumstance doth make it good or ill | F |
