The Sonnets Xlix - Against That Time, If Ever That Time Come Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABABCDEFGHGIJEAgainst that time if ever that time come | A |
When I shall see thee frown on my defects | B |
When as thy love hath cast his utmost sum | A |
Call'd to that audit by advis'd respects | B |
Against that time when thou shalt strangely pass | C |
And scarcely greet me with that sun thine eye | D |
When love converted from the thing it was | E |
Shall reasons find of settled gravity | F |
Against that time do I ensconce me here | G |
Within the knowledge of mine own desert | H |
And this my hand against my self uprear | G |
To guard the lawful reasons on thy part | I |
To leave poor me thou hast the strength of laws | J |
Since why to love I can allege no cause | E |
