Sonnet 96: Thought, With Good Cause Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CDE DFFThought with good cause thou lik'st so well the Night | A |
Since kind or chance gives both one livery | B |
Both sadly black both blackly darken'd be | B |
Night barr'd from sun thou from thy own sunlight | A |
- | |
Silence in both displays his sullen might | A |
Slow Heaviness in both holds one degree | B |
That full of doubts thou of perplexity | B |
Thy tears express Night's native moisture right | A |
- | |
In both a mazeful solitariness | C |
In Night of sprites the ghastly powers to stir | D |
In thee or sprites or sprited ghastliness | E |
- | |
But but alas Night's side the odds hath fur | D |
For that at length yet doth invite some rest | F |
Thou though still tir'd yet still do'st it detest | F |
Sir Philip Sidney
