Sonnets: Idea Lix To Proverbs Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEFGFGHH| As Love and I late harboured in one inn | A |
| With Proverbs thus each other entertain | B |
| In love there is no lack thus I begin | A |
| Fair words make fools replieth he again | C |
| Who spares to speak doth spare to speed quoth I | D |
| As well saith he too forward as too slow | E |
| Fortune assists the boldest I reply | D |
| A hasty man quoth he ne'er wanted woe | E |
| Labour is light where love quoth I doth pay | F |
| Saith he Light burden's heavy if far born | G |
| Quoth I The main lost cast the by away | F |
| You have spun a fair thread he replies in scorn | G |
| And having thus awhile each other thwarted | H |
| Fools as we met so fools again we parted | H |
