Sonnet Lx: Lo, Here The Impost Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEFGHGHII| Lo here the impost of a faith unfeigning | A |
| That love hath paid and her disdain extorted | B |
| Behold the message of my just complaining | A |
| That shows the world how much my grief imported | B |
| These tributary plaints fraught with desire | C |
| I send those eyes the cabinets of love | D |
| The Paradise whereto my hopes aspire | E |
| From out this hell which mine afflictions prove | F |
| Wherein I thus do live cast down from mirth | G |
| Pensive alone none but despair about me | H |
| My joys abortive perish'd at their birth | G |
| My cares long liv'd and will not die without me | H |
| This is my state and Delia's heart is such | I |
| I say no more I fear I said too much | I |
