The Sonnets Cviii - What's In The Brain, That Ink May Character Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGG| What's in the brain that ink may character | A |
| Which hath not figur'd to thee my true spirit | B |
| What's new to speak what now to register | A |
| That may express my love or thy dear merit | B |
| Nothing sweet boy but yet like prayers divine | C |
| I must each day say o'er the very same | D |
| Counting no old thing old thou mine I thine | C |
| Even as when first I hallow'd thy fair name | D |
| So that eternal love in love's fresh case | E |
| Weighs not the dust and injury of age | F |
| Nor gives to necessary wrinkles place | E |
| But makes antiquity for aye his page | F |
| Finding the first conceit of love there bred | G |
| Where time and outward form would show it dead | G |
