Sonnets Xvii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCEFGFHII| O NEVER say that I was false of heart | A |
| Though absence seem'd my flame to qualify | B |
| As easy might I from myself depart | A |
| As from my soul which in thy breast doth lie | B |
| That is my home of love if I have ranged | C |
| Like him that travels I return again | D |
| Just to the time not with the time exchanged | C |
| So that myself bring water for my stain | E |
| Never believe though in my nature reign'd | F |
| All frailties that besiege all kinds of blood | G |
| That it could so prepost'rously be stain'd | F |
| To leave for nothing all thy sum of good | H |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp For nothing this wide Universe I call | I |
| nbsp nbsp nbsp Save thou my Rose in it thou art my all | I |
