Astrophel And Stella - Sonnet Xxii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBAACCADD| In highest way of heau'n the Sun did ride | A |
| Progressing then from fair Twinnes golden place | B |
| Hauing no mask of clouds before his face | B |
| But streaming forth of heate in his chiefe pride | A |
| When some fair ladies by hard promise tied | A |
| On horsebacke met him in his furious race | B |
| Yet each prepar'd with fannes wel shading grace | B |
| From that foes wounds their tender skinnes to hide | A |
| Stella alone with face vnarmed marcht | A |
| Either to do like him which open shone | C |
| Or carelesse of the wealth because her owne | C |
| Yet were the hid and meaner beauties parcht | A |
| Her dainties bare went free the cause was this | D |
| The sun that others burn'd did her but kisse | D |
