Sonnet Xxv: False Hope Prolongs Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDEEFEFGG| False hope prolongs my ever certain grief | A |
| Trait'rous to me and faithful to my love | B |
| A thousand times it promis'd me relief | A |
| Yet never any true effect I prove | C |
| Oft when I find in her no truth at all | D |
| I banish her and blame her treachery | E |
| Yet soon again I must her back recall | D |
| As one that dies without her company | E |
| Thus often as I chase my hope from me | E |
| Straight way she hastes her unto Delia's eyes | F |
| Fed with some pleasing look there shall she be | E |
| And so sent back and thus my fortune lies | F |
| Looks feed my Hope Hope fosters me in vain | G |
| Hopes are unsure when certain is my pain | G |
