Sonnet Cxxvi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: AABBCCDDAAEE| O thou my lovely boy who in thy power | A |
| Dost hold Time's fickle glass his sickle 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 delay'd answer'd must be | E |
| And her quietus is to render thee | E |
William Shakespeare
