Sonnet 89: Now, That Of Absence Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA ABA BABNow that of absence the most irksome night | A |
With darkest shade doth overcome my day | B |
Since Stella's eyes wont to give me my day | B |
Leaving my hemisphere leave me in night | A |
- | |
Each day seems long and longs for long stay'd night | A |
The night as tedious woos th'approach of day | B |
Tir'd with the dusty toils of busy day | B |
Languish'd with horrors of the silent night | A |
- | |
Suffering the evils both of the day and night | A |
While no night is more dark than is my day | B |
Nor no day hath less quiet than my night | A |
- | |
With such bad misture of my night and day | B |
That living thus in blackest winter night | A |
I feel the flames of hottest summer day | B |
Sir Philip Sidney
