Sonnet 145: Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGHGIJ| Those lips that Love's own hand did make | A |
| Breath'd forth the sound that said I hate | B |
| To me that languish'd for her sake | A |
| But when she saw my woeful state | B |
| Straight in her heart did mercy come | C |
| Chiding that tongue that ever sweet | D |
| Was used in giving gentle doom | E |
| And taught it thus anew to greet | D |
| 'I hate' she alter'd with an end | F |
| That follow'd it as gentle day | G |
| Doth follow night who like a fiend | H |
| From heaven to hell is flown away | G |
| 'I hate' from hate away she threw | I |
| And sav'd my life saying 'not you' | J |
