Sonnet 095: How Sweet And Lovely Dost Thou Make The Shame Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGHHow sweet and lovely dost thou make the shame | A |
Which like a canker in the fragrant rose | B |
Doth spot the beauty of thy budding name | A |
O in what sweets dost thou thy sins enclose | B |
That tongue that tells the story of thy days | C |
Making lascivious comments on thy sport | D |
Cannot dispraise but in a kind of praise | C |
Naming thy name blesses an ill report | D |
O what a mansion have those vices got | E |
Which for their habitation chose out thee | F |
Where beauty's veil doth cover every blot | E |
And all things turns to fair that eyes can see | F |
Take heed dear heart of this large privilege | G |
The hardest knife ill used doth lose his edge | H |
William Shakespeare
