Sonnet Lxxii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABACDEDFGHIHJK| O lest the world should task you to recite | A |
| What merit lived in me that you should love | B |
| After my death dear love forget me quite | A |
| For you in me can nothing worthy prove | C |
| Unless you would devise some virtuous lie | D |
| To do more for me than mine own desert | E |
| And hang more praise upon deceased I | D |
| Than niggard truth would willingly impart | F |
| O lest your true love may seem false in this | G |
| That you for love speak well of me untrue | H |
| My name be buried where my body is | I |
| And live no more to shame nor me nor you | H |
| For I am shamed by that which I bring forth | J |
| And so should you to love things nothing worth | K |
William Shakespeare
