Sonnet 10: Reason Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BABA CCC CDE

Reason in faith thou art well serv'd that stillA
Wouldst brabbling be with sense and love in meB
I rather wish'd thee climb the Muses' hillA
Or reach the fruit of Nature's choicest treeB
-
Or seek heav'n's course or heav'n's inside to seeB
Why shouldst thou toil our thorny soil to tillA
Leave sense and those which sense's objects beB
Deal thou with powers of thoughts leave love to willA
-
But thou wouldst needs fight both with love and senseC
With sword of wit giving wounds of dispraiseC
Till downright blows did foil thy cunning fenceC
-
For soon as they strake thee with Stella's raysC
Reason thou kneel'dst and offeredst straight to proveD
By reason good good reason her to loveE

Sir Philip Sidney
