Love-s Unity Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABBAABBACDDCDC

How can I tell thee when I love thee bestA
In rapture or repose how shall I sayB
I only know I love thee every wayB
Plumed for love's flight or folded in love's nestA
See what is day but night bedewed with restA
And what the night except the tired out dayB
And 'tis love's difference not love's decayB
If now I dawn now fade upon thy breastA
Self torturing sweet Is't not the self same sunC
Wanes in the west that flameth in the eastD
His fervour nowise altered nor decreasedD
So rounds my love returning where begunC
And still beginning never most nor leastD
But fixedly various all love's parts in oneC
