When Love Puffed Up With Rage Of High Disdain Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDCDEE| When Love puffed up with rage of high disdain | A |
| Resolved to make me pattern of his might | B |
| Like foe whose wits inclined to deadly spite | B |
| Would often kill to breed more feeling pain | A |
| He would not armed with beauty only reign | A |
| On those affects which easily yield to sight | B |
| But virtue sets so high that reason's light | B |
| For all his strife can only bondage gain | A |
| So that I live to pay a mortal fee | C |
| Dead palsy sick of all my chiefest parts | D |
| Like those whom dreams make ugly monsters see | C |
| And can cry help with naught but groans and starts | D |
| Longing to have having no wit to wish | E |
| To starving minds such is god Cupid's dish | E |
