Sonnet Li Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDAEAEDD| Thus can my love excuse the slow offence | A |
| Of my dull bearer when from thee I speed | B |
| From where thou art why should I haste me thence | A |
| Till I return of posting is no need | B |
| O what excuse will my poor beast then find | C |
| When swift extremity can seem but slow | D |
| Then should I spur though mounted on the wind | C |
| In winged speed no motion shall I know | D |
| Then can no horse with my desire keep pace | A |
| Therefore desire of perfect'st love being made | E |
| Shall neigh no dull flesh in his fiery race | A |
| But love for love thus shall excuse my jade | E |
| Since from thee going he went wilful slow | D |
| Towards thee I'll run and give him leave to go | D |
William Shakespeare
