Astrophel And Stella: Xxiii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAAAAAABABACC| The curious wits seeing dull pensiveness | A |
| Bewray itself in my long settl'd eyes | A |
| Whence those same fumes of melancholy rise | A |
| With idle pains and missing aim do guess | A |
| Some that know how my spring I did address | A |
| Deem that my Muse some fruit of knowledge plies | A |
| Others because the prince my service tries | A |
| Think that I think state errors to redress | A |
| But harder judges judge ambition's rage | B |
| Scourge of itself still climbing slipp'ry place | A |
| Holds my young brain captiv'd in golden cage | B |
| O fool or over wise alas the race | A |
| Of all my thoughts hath neither stop nor start | C |
| But only Stella's eyes and Stella's heart | C |
