Sonnet 43: Fair Eyes, Sweet Lips Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BABA CDE FGH| Fair eyes sweet lips dear heart that foolish I | A |
| Could hope by Cupid's help on you to prey | B |
| Since to himself he doth your gifts apply | A |
| As his main force choice sport and easeful stay | B |
| - | |
| For when he will see who dare him gainsay | B |
| Then with those eyes he looks lo by and by | A |
| Each soul doth at Love's feet his weapons lay | B |
| Glad if for her he give them leave to die | A |
| - | |
| When he will play then in her lips he is | C |
| Where blushing red that Love's self them doth love | D |
| With either lip he doth the other kiss | E |
| - | |
| But when he will for quiet's sake remove | F |
| From all the world her heart is then his room | G |
| Where well he knows no man to him can come | H |
Sir Philip Sidney
