Sonnet 44: My Words, I Know Do Well Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBB CDC DEE| My words I know do well set forth my mind | A |
| My mind bemoans his sense of inward smart | B |
| Such smart may pity claim of any heart | B |
| Her heart sweet heart is of no tiger's kind | A |
| - | |
| And yet she hears yet I no pity find | A |
| But more I cry less grace she doth impart | B |
| Alas what cause is there so overthwart | B |
| That nobleness itself makes thus unkind | B |
| - | |
| I much do guess yet find no truth save this | C |
| That when the breath of my complaints doth touch | D |
| Those dainty doors unto the court of bliss | C |
| - | |
| The heav'nly nature of that place is such | D |
| That once come there the sobs of mine annoys | E |
| Are metamorphos'd straight to tunes of joys | E |
Sir Philip Sidney
