Sonnet 60: Like As The Waves Make Towards The Pebbled Shore Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGHH| Like as the waves make towards the pebbled shore | A |
| So do our minutes hasten to their end | B |
| Each changing place with that which goes before | A |
| In sequent toil all forwards do contend | B |
| Nativity once in the main of light | C |
| Crawls to maturity wherewith being crowned | D |
| Crook egrave d eclipses 'gainst his glory fight | C |
| And Time that gave doth now his gift confound | D |
| Time doth transfix the flourish set on youth | E |
| And delves the parallels in beauty's brow | F |
| Feeds on the rarities of nature's truth | E |
| And nothing stands but for his scythe to mow | G |
| And yet to times in hope my verse shall stand | H |
| Praising thy worth despite his cruel hand | H |
William Shakespeare
