A Lady Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis

Rhyme Scheme: ABCDEFGHIJKIJ KLMN

You are beautiful and fadedA
Like an old opera tuneB
Played upon a harpsichordC
Or like the sun flooded silksD
Of an eighteenth century boudoirE
In your eyesF
Smoulder the fallen roses of out lived minutesG
And the perfume of your soulH
Is vague and suffusingI
With the pungence of sealed spice jarsJ
Your half tones delight meK
And I grow mad with gazingI
At your blent coloursJ
-
My vigour is a new minted pennyK
Which I cast at your feetL
Gather it up from the dustM
That its sparkle may amuse youN
