Sonnet 24: Mine Eye Hath Played The Painter And Hath Stelled Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AAAABCBCDEDEAAMine eye hath played the painter and hath stelled | A |
Thy beauty's form in table of my heart | A |
My body is the frame wherein 'tis held | A |
And perspective it is best painter's art | A |
For through the painter must you see his skill | B |
To find where your true image pictured lies | C |
Which in my bosom's shop is hanging still | B |
That hath his windows glaz egrave d with thine eyes | C |
Now see what good turns eyes for eyes have done | D |
Mine eyes have drawn thy shape and thine for me | E |
Are windows to my breast where through the sun | D |
Delights to peep to gaze therein on thee | E |
Yet eyes this cunning want to grace their art | A |
They draw but what they see know not the heart | A |
