Sonnet Lxiii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFGFHH| Against my love shall be as I am now | A |
| With Time's injurious hand crush'd and o'er worn | B |
| When hours have drain'd his blood and fill'd his brow | A |
| With lines and wrinkles when his youthful morn | B |
| Hath travell'd on to age's steepy night | C |
| And all those beauties whereof now he's king | D |
| Are vanishing or vanish'd out of sight | C |
| Stealing away the treasure of his spring | D |
| For such a time do I now fortify | E |
| Against confounding age's cruel knife | F |
| That he shall never cut from memory | G |
| My sweet love's beauty though my lover's life | F |
| His beauty shall in these black lines be seen | H |
| And they shall live and he in them still green | H |
