Astrophel And Stella - Sonnet Cii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACCDEED| Where be those roses gone which sweetned so our eyes | A |
| Where those red cheeks which oft with faire encrease did frame | B |
| The height of honour in the kindly badge of shame | B |
| Who hath the crimson weeds stolne from my morning skies | A |
| How doth the colour vade of those vermilion dies | A |
| Which Nature self did make and self ingrain'd the same | B |
| I would know by what right this palenesse ouercame | B |
| That hue whose force my hart still vnto thraldome ties | A |
| Galens adoptiue sonnes who by a beaten way | C |
| Their iudgements hackney on the fault of sicknesse lay | C |
| But feeling proofe makes me say they mistake it furre | D |
| It is but loue which makes this paper perfit white | E |
| To write therein more fresh the storie of delight | E |
| Whiles Beauties reddest inke Venus for him doth sturre | D |
