Sonnet Lv: Let Others Sing Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAABACCDCDEE| Let others sing of Knights and Paladins | A |
| In aged accents and untimely words | A |
| Paint shadows in imaginary lines | A |
| Which well the reach of their high wits records | A |
| But I must sing of thee and those fair eyes | A |
| Authentic shall my verse in time to come | B |
| When yet th'unborn shall say quot Lo where she lies | A |
| Whose beauty made him speak that else was dumb quot | C |
| These are the Arks the Trophies I erect | C |
| That fortify thy name against old age | D |
| And these thy sacred virtues must protect | C |
| Against the dark and Time's consuming rage | D |
| Though th'error of my youth they shall discover | E |
| Suffice they show I liv'd and was thy lover | E |
Samuel Daniel
