Sonnet Lix: Unhappy Pen Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAABABCDCEFF| Unhappy pen and ill accepted papers | A |
| That intimate in vain my chaste desires | A |
| My chaste desires the ever burning tapers | A |
| Enkindled by her eyes' celestial fires | A |
| Celestial fires and unrespecting powers | A |
| That deign not view the glory of your might | B |
| In humble lines the work of carefull hours | A |
| The sacrifice I offer to her sight | B |
| But sith she scorns her own this rests for me | C |
| I'll moan myself and hide the wrong I have | D |
| And so content me that her frowns should be | C |
| To my'infant style the cradle and the grave | E |
| What though myself no honor get thereby | F |
| Each bird sings t'herself and so will I | F |
