Astrophel And Stella - Sonnet Xxvii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDAAAAAAA

Because I oft in darke abstracted guiseA
Seeme most alone in greatest companyB
With dearth of words or answers quite awrieC
To them that would make speech of speech ariseA
They deeme and of their doome the runour fliesA
That poison foul of bubbling pride doth lieD
So in my swelling breast that only ID
Fawne on my selfe and others do despiseA
Yet pride I thinke doth not my soule possesseA
Which looks too oft in his vnflatt'ring glasseA
But one worse fault ambition I confesseA
That makes me oft my best friends ouerpasseA
Vnseene vnheard while thought to highest placeA
Bends all his powers euen vnto Stellaes graceA

Philip Sidney (sir)
