Sonnet 126: O Thou, My Lovely Boy, Who In Thy Power Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDAAEEO thou my lovely boy who in thy power | A |
Dost hold Time's fickle glass his fickle hour | A |
Who hast by waning grown and therein show'st | B |
Thy lovers withering as thy sweet self grow'st | B |
If Nature sovereign mistress over wrack | C |
As thou goest onwards still will pluck thee back | C |
She keeps thee to this purpose that her skill | D |
May Time disgrace and wretched minutes kill | D |
Yet fear her O thou minion of her pleasure | A |
She may detain but not still keep her treasure | A |
Her audit though delayed answered must be | E |
And her quietus is to render thee | E |
William Shakespeare
