Question

Read the sonnet by Sir Philip Sydney.

VII
When Nature made her chief worke, Stellas eyes,__
In colour blacke why wrapt she beames so bright?__
Would she in beamy blacke, like Painter wise,__
Frame daintiest lustre, mixt of shades and light?__
Or did she else that sober hue devise,__
In obiect best to knitt and strength our sight;__
Least, if no vaile these brave gleames did disguise,__
They, sunlike, should more dazle then delight?__
Or would she her miraculous power show,__
That, whereas blacke seems Beauties contrary,__
She even in black doth make all beauties flow?__
Both so, and thus, she, minding Love should be__
Plac'd ever there, gave him this mourning weede__
To honour all their deaths who for her bleed.__

Step-by-step explanation:

The rhyme scheme of a poem or a song refers to the pattern of rhyme that the poem or song follows. It can also be understood as the structure of the end words that a poet uses. In order to identify the rhyme scheme of a poem, we need to look at the last words of each verse. We then assign a particular letter to each line. "a" would be the first line, and every subsequent line that rhymes with it will receive the same letter. The first line that exhibits a new rhyme will receive the letter "b" and so on. In this example, the rhyme scheme follows the pattern abab abab cdcd ee.
