Sonnet Xlvi Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEBBBBBB| Mine eye and heart are at a mortal war | A |
| How to divide the conquest of thy sight | B |
| Mine eye my heart thy picture's sight would bar | C |
| My heart mine eye the freedom of that right | B |
| My heart doth plead that thou in him dost lie | D |
| A closet never pierced with crystal eyes | E |
| But the defendant doth that plea deny | D |
| And says in him thy fair appearance lies | E |
| To 'cide this title is impanneled | B |
| A quest of thoughts all tenants to the heart | B |
| And by their verdict is determined | B |
| The clear eye's moiety and the dear heart's part | B |
| As thus mine eye's due is thy outward part | B |
| And my heart's right thy inward love of heart | B |
William Shakespeare
