Sonnet Vi: Some Lovers Speak Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABAB BABA BBC DDE| Some lovers speak when they their Muses entertain | A |
| Of hopes begot by fear of wot not what desires | B |
| Of force of heav'nly beams infusing hellish pain | A |
| Of living deaths dear wounds fair storms and freezing fires | B |
| - | |
| Some one his song in Jove and Jove's strange tales attires | B |
| Broidered with bulls and swans powdered with golden rain | A |
| Another humbler wit to shepherd's pipe retires | B |
| Yet hiding royal blood full oft in rural vein | A |
| - | |
| To some a sweetest plaint a sweetest style affords | B |
| While tears pour out his ink and sighs breathe out his words | B |
| His paper pale despair and pain his pen doth move | C |
| - | |
| I can speak what I feel and feel as much as they | D |
| But think that all the map of my state I display | D |
| When trembling voice brings forth that I do Stella love | E |
