The Sonnets Cxliii - Lo, As A Careful Housewife Runs To Catch Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDCDEFEFGH| Lo as a careful housewife runs to catch | A |
| One of her feather'd creatures broke away | B |
| Sets down her babe and makes all swift dispatch | A |
| In pursuit of the thing she would have stay | B |
| Whilst her neglected child holds her in chase | C |
| Cries to catch her whose busy care is bent | D |
| To follow that which flies before her face | C |
| Not prizing her poor infant's discontent | D |
| So runn'st thou after that which flies from thee | E |
| Whilst I thy babe chase thee afar behind | F |
| But if thou catch thy hope turn back to me | E |
| And play the mother's part kiss me be kind | F |
| So will I pray that thou mayst have thy 'Will ' | G |
| If thou turn back and my loud crying still | H |
