Sonnet Xv: You That Do Search Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBA ABBA CCD EEDYou 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 |
