Sonnet 041: Those Pretty Wrongs That Liberty Commits Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| Those pretty wrongs that liberty commits | A |
| When I am sometime absent from thy heart | B |
| Thy beauty and thy years full well befits | A |
| For still temptation follows where thou art | B |
| Gentle thou art and therefore to be won | C |
| Beauteous thou art therefore to be assailed | D |
| And when a woman woos what woman's son | C |
| Will sourly leave her till he have prevailed | D |
| Ay me but yet thou mightst my seat forbear | E |
| And chide thy beauty and thy straying youth | F |
| Who lead thee in their riot even there | E |
| Where thou art forced to break a twofold truth | F |
| Hers by thy beauty tempting her to thee | G |
| Thine by thy beauty being false to me | G |
