I think it may be metrically and historically inaccurate.
honestly I have no idea. "did write" seems to be an iamb though.
Did write is metrically correct (though a trochee) but an obvious act of.desperation. you don't really see the old "did (verb)" in sonnets anymore.

The metrical problems are elsewhere.

Did write is a more grotesque version of leannes had have and my "and so he"
iamb trochee, its all the same thing these days. considering the rest of the old english did write kinda fits anyway. not to say the poem is worth a hoot.
