Astrophel And Stella - Sonnet Xi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBAABABAA| In truth O Loue with what a boyish kind | A |
| Thou doest proceed in thy most serious ways | B |
| That when the heau'n to thee his best displayes | B |
| Yet of that best thou leau'st the best behinde | A |
| For like a childe that some faire booke doth find | A |
| With gilded leaues or colour'd vellum playes | B |
| Or at the most on some fine picture stayes | B |
| But neuer heeds the fruit of Writers mind | A |
| So when thou saw'st in Natures cabinet | A |
| Stella thou straight lookst babies in her eyes | B |
| In her chekes pit thou didst thy pitfold set | A |
| And in her breast bo peepe or crouching lies | B |
| Playing and shining in each outward part | A |
| But fool seekst not to get into her heart | A |
