Love Sonnet Xlii Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBA CDEFDE| My true mind makes as many loves of you | A |
| As my full heart contentedly can hold | B |
| And when the one grows dull the other cold | B |
| Yet comes another swifter in to woo | A |
| I could not rue such changing retinue | A |
| Nor chastise circumstance that keeps me bold | B |
| I make you young or middle aged or old | B |
| Just as it pleases my own whim to do | A |
| - | |
| And then to counterbalance what you give | C |
| Thus all unwittingly I smile or frown | D |
| Am thoughtful mirthful grave or sunny eyed | E |
| To meet your mood and help you best to live | F |
| In me all women to your wish bow down | D |
| In you all men at my desire abide | E |
