Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFCGCHHSin of self love possesseth all mine eye | A |
And all my soul and all my every part | B |
And for this sin there is no remedy | C |
It is so grounded inward in my heart | B |
Methinks no face so gracious is as mine | D |
No shape so true no truth of such account | E |
And for my self mine own worth do define | D |
As I all other in all worths surmount | E |
But when my glass shows me myself indeed | F |
Beated and chapped with tanned antiquity | C |
Mine own self love quite contrary I read | G |
Self so self loving were iniquity | C |
'Tis thee myself that for my self I praise | H |
Painting my age with beauty of thy days | H |
William Shakespeare
