Sonnets Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCB DEDE FGFGHH IJIJ KLKL MNMNOO

The dart the beams the sting so strong I proveA
Which my chief part doth pass through parch and tieB
That of the stroke the heat and knot of loveC
Wounded inflamed knit to the death I dieB
-
Hardened and cold far from affection's snareD
Was once my mind my temper and my lifeE
While I that sight desire and vow forbareD
Which to avoid quench lose nought boasted strifeE
-
Yet will not I grief ashes thraldom changeF
For others' ease their fruit or free estateG
So brave a shot dear fire and beauty strangeF
Bid me pierce burn and bind long time and lateG
And in my wounds my flames and bonds I findH
A salve fresh air and bright contented mindH
-

-
Virtue beauty and speech did strike wound charmI
My heart eyes ears with wonder love delightJ
First second last did bind enforce and armI
His works shows suits with wit grace and vows' mightJ
-
Thus honour liking trust much far and deepK
Held pierced possessed my judgment sense and willL
Till wrongs contempt deceit did grow steal creepK
Bands favour faith to break defile and killL
-
Then grief unkindness proof took kindled taughtM
Well grounded noble due spite rage disdainN
But ah alas in vain my mind sight thoughtM
Doth him his face his words leave shun refrainN
For nothing time nor place can loose quench easeO
Mine own embraced sought knot fire diseaseO

Philip Sidney (sir)
