Sonnets: Idea Xlix Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEFGHIJIKKThou leaden brain which censur'st what I write | A |
And sayst my lines be dull and do not move | B |
I marvel not thou feel'st not my delight | A |
Which never felt'st my fiery touch of love | C |
But thou whose pen hath like a packhorse served | D |
Whose stomach unto gall hath turned thy food | E |
Whose senses like poor prisoners hunger starved | F |
Whose grief hath parched thy body dried thy blood | G |
Thou which hast scorn d life and hated death | H |
And in a moment mad sober glad and sorry | I |
Thou which hast banned thy thoughts and curst thy birth | J |
With thousand plagues more than in purgatory | I |
Thou thus whose spirit love in his fire refines | K |
Come thou and read admire applaud my lines | K |
