Astrophel And Stella - Sonnet Xxvii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCAADDAAAAAAABecause I oft in darke abstracted guise | A |
Seeme most alone in greatest company | B |
With dearth of words or answers quite awrie | C |
To them that would make speech of speech arise | A |
They deeme and of their doome the runour flies | A |
That poison foul of bubbling pride doth lie | D |
So in my swelling breast that only I | D |
Fawne on my selfe and others do despise | A |
Yet pride I thinke doth not my soule possesse | A |
Which looks too oft in his vnflatt'ring glasse | A |
But one worse fault ambition I confesse | A |
That makes me oft my best friends ouerpasse | A |
Vnseene vnheard while thought to highest place | A |
Bends all his powers euen vnto Stellaes grace | A |
