Sonnet Xv: You That Do Search Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CCD EED| You that do search for every purling spring | A |
| Which from the ribs of old Parnassus flows | B |
| And every flower not sweet perhaps which grows | B |
| Near thereabouts into your poesy wring | A |
| - | |
| You that do dictionary's method bring | A |
| Into your rimes running in rattling rows | B |
| You that poor Petrarch's long deceased woes | B |
| With new born sighs and denizen'd wit do sing | A |
| - | |
| You take wrong ways those far fet helps be such | C |
| As do bewray a want of inward touch | C |
| And sure at length stol'n goods do come to light | D |
| - | |
| But if both for your love and skill your name | E |
| You seek to nurse at fullest breasts of Fame | E |
| Stella behold and then begin to endite | D |
