Sonnet 76: She Comes, And Straight Therewith Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBC ABBA DED EFFShe comes and straight therewith her shining twins do move | A |
Their rays to me who in her tedious absence lay | B |
Benighted in cold woe but now appears my day | B |
The only light of joy the only warmth of love | C |
- | |
She comes with light and warmth which like Aurora prove | A |
Of gentle force so that mine eyes dare gladly play | B |
With such a rosy morn whose beams most freshly gay | B |
Scorch not but only do dark chilling sprites remove | A |
- | |
But lo while I do speak it groweth noon with me | D |
Her flamy glist'ring lights increase with time and place | E |
My heart cries Ah it burns mine eyes now dazzl'd be | D |
- | |
No wind no shade can cool what help then in my case | E |
But with short breath long looks staid feet and walking head | F |
Pray that my sun go down with meeker beams to bed | F |
Sir Philip Sidney
