The Sonnets Xx - A Woman's Face With Nature's Own Hand Painted Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCBDEDEADADFF| A woman's face with nature's own hand painted | A |
| Hast thou the master mistress of my passion | B |
| A woman's gentle heart but not acquainted | C |
| With shifting change as is false women's fashion | B |
| An eye more bright than theirs less false in rolling | D |
| Gilding the object whereupon it gazeth | E |
| A man in hue all 'hues' in his controlling | D |
| Which steals men's eyes and women's souls amazeth | E |
| And for a woman wert thou first created | A |
| Till Nature as she wrought thee fell a doting | D |
| And by addition me of thee defeated | A |
| By adding one thing to my purpose nothing | D |
| But since she prick'd thee out for women's pleasure | F |
| Mine be thy love and thy love's use their treasure | F |
William Shakespeare
