Sonnet Xci Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEGHH| Some glory in their birth some in their skill | A |
| Some in their wealth some in their bodies' force | B |
| Some in their garments though new fangled ill | A |
| Some in their hawks and hounds some in their horse | B |
| And every humour hath his adjunct pleasure | C |
| Wherein it finds a joy above the rest | D |
| But these particulars are not my measure | C |
| All these I better in one general best | D |
| Thy love is better than high birth to me | E |
| Richer than wealth prouder than garments' cost | F |
| Of more delight than hawks or horses be | E |
| And having thee of all men's pride I boast | G |
| Wretched in this alone that thou mayst take | H |
| All this away and me most wretched make | H |
