Astrophel And Stella - Sonnet Viii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDEE| Loue borne in Greece of late fled from his natiue place | A |
| Forc't by a tedious proof that Turkish hardned heart | B |
| Is not fit mark to pierce with his fine pointed dart | B |
| And pleas'd with our soft peace staide here his flying race | A |
| But finding these north clymes too coldly him embrace | A |
| Not vsde to frozen clips he straue to find some part | B |
| Where with most ease and warmth he might employ his art | B |
| At length he perch'd himself in Stellaes ioyful face | A |
| Whose faire skin beamy eyes like morning sun on snow | C |
| Deceiu'd the quaking boy who thought from so pure light | D |
| Effects of liuely heat must needs in nature grow | C |
| But she most faire most cold made him thence take his flight | D |
| To my close heart where while some firebrands he did lay | E |
| He burnt vn'wares his wings and cannot flie away | E |
