Sonnet 57: Being Your Slave, What Should I Do But Tend Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABBCBCDEDEFF| Being your slave what should I do but tend | A |
| Upon the hours and times of your desire | B |
| I have no precious time at all to spend | A |
| Nor services to do till you require | B |
| Nor dare I chide the world without end hour | B |
| Whilst I my sovereign watch the clock for you | C |
| Nor think the bitterness of absence sour | B |
| When you have bid your servant once adieu | C |
| Nor dare I question with my jealous thought | D |
| Where you may be or your affairs suppose | E |
| But like a sad slave stay and think of naught | D |
| Save where you are how happy you make those | E |
| So true a fool is love that in your will | F |
| Though you do any thing he thinks no ill | F |
