Astrophel And Stella - Sonnet Lxviii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCAACBADEDEFG

Stella the onely planet of my lightA
Light of my life and life of my desireB
Chiefe good whereto my hope doth only aspireC
World of my wealth and heau'n of my delightA
Why dost thou spend the treasures of thy spriteA
With voice more fit to wed Amphions lyreC
Seeking to quench in me the noble fireB
Fed by thy worth and kindled by thy sightA
And all in vaine for while thy breath most sweetD
With choisest words thy words with reasons rareE
Thy reasons firmly set on Vertues feetD
Labour to kill in me this killing careE
O thinke I then what paradise of ioyF
It is so faire a vertue to enioyG
