Sonnet Xlvii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEDFGHGII| Betwixt mine eye and heart a league is took | A |
| And each doth good turns now unto the other | B |
| When that mine eye is famish'd for a look | A |
| Or heart in love with sighs himself doth smother | B |
| With my love's picture then my eye doth feast | C |
| And to the painted banquet bids my heart | D |
| Another time mine eye is my heart's guest | E |
| And in his thoughts of love doth share a part | D |
| So either by thy picture or my love | F |
| Thyself away art resent still with me | G |
| For thou not farther than my thoughts canst move | H |
| And I am still with them and they with thee | G |
| Or if they sleep thy picture in my sight | I |
| Awakes my heart to heart's and eye's delight | I |
