The Sonnets Ciii - Alack! What Poverty My Muse Brings Forth Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEFGFGHH| Alack what poverty my Muse brings forth | A |
| That having such a scope to show her pride | B |
| The argument all bare is of more worth | C |
| Than when it hath my added praise beside | B |
| O blame me not if I no more can write | D |
| Look in your glass and there appears a face | E |
| That over goes my blunt invention quite | D |
| Dulling my lines and doing me disgrace | E |
| Were it not sinful then striving to mend | F |
| To mar the subject that before was well | G |
| For to no other pass my verses tend | F |
| Than of your graces and your gifts to tell | G |
| And more much more than in my verse can sit | H |
| Your own glass shows you when you look in it | H |
