Sonnet 77: Those Looks, Whose Beams Be Joy Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAC ACAC DEF EGG| Those looks whose beams be joy whose motion is delight | A |
| That face whose lecture shows what perfect beauty is | B |
| That presence which doth give dark hearts a living light | A |
| That grace which Venus weeps that she herself doth miss | C |
| - | |
| That hand which without touch holds more than Atlas might | A |
| Those lips which make death's pay a mean price for a kiss | C |
| That skin skin whose passe praise hue scorns this poor term of white | A |
| Those words which do sublime the quintessence of bliss | C |
| - | |
| That voice which makes the soul plant himself in the ears | D |
| That conversation sweet where such high comforts be | E |
| As constru'd in true speech the name of heav'n it bears | F |
| - | |
| Makes me in my best thought and quiet'st judgment see | E |
| That in no more but these I might be fully blest | G |
| Yet ah my maiden Muse doth blush to tell the rest | G |
Sir Philip Sidney
