Sonnet Ix: Queen Virtue's Court Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCA ACCA DED EFF| Queen Virtue's court which some call Stella's face | A |
| Prepar'd by Nature's choicest furniture | B |
| Hath his front built of alabaster pure | C |
| Gold in the covering of that stately place | A |
| - | |
| The door by which sometimes comes forth her Grace | A |
| Red porphir is which lock of pearl makes sure | C |
| Whose porches rich which name of cheeks endure | C |
| Marble mix'd red and white do interlace | A |
| - | |
| The windows now through which this heav'nly guest | D |
| Looks o'er the world and can find nothing such | E |
| Which dare claim from those lights the name of best | D |
| - | |
| Of touch they are that without touch doth touch | E |
| Which Cupid's self from Beauty's mine did draw | F |
| Of touch they are and poor I am their straw | F |
